Last Thursday afternoon 
flying at 300 feet in a heli- 
copter, Ernie Jamison MLA 
and Dick Johnston, Minister 
of Municipal Affairs obser- 
ved first hand the three areas 
proposed for annexation to 
the City of St. Albert. 

As reported last week Bill 
24, an amendment to the 
Municipal Government Act, 
now gives the Minister 
authority for altering, app- 
roving or rejecting annexa- 
tions approved by the Local 
Authorities Board. ‘‘It was 
for this reason,’’ said Mr. 
Jamison, ‘‘that I initiated the 
helicopter tour, to give the 
Minister a ‘‘Bird’s Eye’’ 
view of the lands involved in 
the Genstar NW Sector 
annexation (1900 acres), the 
City of St. Albert annexation 
SE (4800 acres) and the St. 
Albert Investments proposal 
for annexation to the North- 
east (1700 acres)."’ 

Also included in the trip 
was a first-hand view of the

Next meeting of the Action 
Committee who are oppos- 
ing the six-laning of the 
highway through St. Albert, 
and seeking time to develop 
a better plan and alterna- 
tives, will be Thursday, June 
Ist at Vital Grandin School.

A Bird’s Eye View 


Hovering at 300 feet above the City of St. Albert, MLA Ernie Jamison points out on the annexation map the area 
covered by St. Albert's three annexation proposals to Municipal Affairs Minister Dick Johnston. The three annexation 
proposals, if approved in total, would increase the size of S.A. by roughly 9000 acres or more than twice the present 
area of St. Albert. Mr. Jamison also pointed out the Star-Key Mine Site, a 30 year supply of coal for the Inland Cement 
Plant and the large gravel and sand pits just west of St. Albert (near Villeneuve), which supply the greater Edmonton 
area including St. Albert. The west by-pass alignment was also pointed out to Mr. Johnston, which if constructed, 
would alleviate most truck traffic off the trail and much vehicle traffic travelling to the NW part of the province.

Albert is expected in the 
not-too-distant future. 


Action group against six- 
lane corridor splitting city 


Going to council June 5 


An action group from Sturgeon area 
drew some 65 people to a meeting last 
Friday night in Vital Grandin School, all of 
them adamant that there should be no 
further development of Highway 2 within 
St. Albert without a ‘proper plan.’’ There 
was also a very strong concensus that 
turning the highway into a six-lané major 
corridor was NOT the way to go. (St. Albert 
has applied to the government for 


- “corridor’’ designation through St. Albert, 


which would mean the government would 
provide 90 percent of the funding). 

“A SIX LANE FREEWAY WILL SPLIT 
THE CITY RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE” 
said one man, and Chairman Bob Hite said 
he would absolutely not let his child cross 

- the highway. It was pointed out that some 
children have to cross to go to school, and 
that accidents were certain to take place, 
with injury and death to children a definite 
possibility. 

Other major concerns brought out by the 
citizens were noise and dust control, the 
fact that ‘spot buying’’ was already taking 


place in the Sturgeon residential area by 
realtors, which should be stopped, and that 
strip commercial development along the 


west side in piece-meal fashion should also 
be stopped. 

As the meeting proceeded it also became 
clear that the chairman and several other 
members of the interim executive of the 
Sturgeon Action Group felt that it was 
necessary to hire their own lawyer and 
consultant and establish a trust fund for 
this purpose. ‘‘We must have expertise on 
our behalf,’’ said Mr. Hite. ‘‘The city has 
their planning consultants and experts, 
and when their consultant comes up with a 
plan council either rejects or accepts it - 
WITHOUT any public input. This could 
happen again, so we have to have our input 
backed up by a consulting firm. If not we 
must develop our own plan,” 

*‘l was advised that a proper plan costs 
money,’’ Mr. Hite continued, ‘‘and when 
we request at a Municipal Planning 
Commission meeting that we be able to 
work with MPC - MPC was not willing.”’ 

Other residents felt that the cost of a 
proper plan should be the responsibility of 
the town, ''This corridor would not be 
desireable in any city,"’ said another man. 
“It's a big problem - consider the funding.

District 3 
balances budget 


The Catholic School Board 
brought in a budget Monday 
night which called for a 
supplementary requisition of 
$810,797.75, an increase of 
28.04% over the figure for 
1977 ($633,212.). 

Ken Porter, finance and 
audit committee chairman, 
said the 1978-79 budget 
reflected ‘‘a shifting of the 
financing for education from 
the government to our 
parents. The supplementary 
requisition requested from 
the City has increased 
28.04% over the 1977 actuals 
whereas the combined Sch- 
ool Foundation Program fun- 


ds and grants from the 


government has increased 
only 4.9% over the 1977 
actuals. Our actual increase 
to the ratepayers was 
14.42% said Mr. Porter, the 


other 13.62% increase in 
supplementary requisition (is 
due to the assessment 
growth in 1978,"’ he added. 

A Catholic system rate- 
payer whose assessment is 
$36,000 will be contributing 
$260.64 to the district by way 
of taxation. The increase 
over last year is $32.84. 

Earlier this spring the 
board passed a motion which 
increased the pupil/teacher 
ratio to 20.81/1 from 19.67/1 
a move largely responsible in 
making it possible to avoid 
deficit financing or a cut back 
in services. 

The Board will continue to 
provide busing to all stud- 
ents in grades 1 through 12 
in St. Albert with no addi- 
tional charge to parents.

MPC hangs tough 
on local developers 


A'St. Albert Optometrist 
Dr. Don LeDrew who wants 
to develop an office comm- 
ercial building near the St. 
Albert United Church had 
some tough words for the city 
Municipal Planning Com- 
mission meeting May 24. 

‘It became clear that Dr. 
LeDrew was going to have to 
foot a $30,000 bill for the 
dedication of a service road 
leading out to the Trail, a 
road which is far from being 
a certainty at this stage. 

Concerning this condition 
for the development, Dr. 
LeDrew told the commission: 
“To dedicate a service road 
is an unfair cost to me and 
just makes the whole thing 
out of line ... | would not be 
against it in the future, but at 
this time there is nothing 
definite about a service 
road."* 

He said dedication of the 
service road at this point 


‘makes it difficult to sw- 
ing.’” 

“If 1 give up $30,000, | 
have to give up another 
$30,000 just to make it 
work,"’ he added. 

Dr. Le Drew told the 
commission that considering 
he thought he was doing 
something that would benefit 
St. Albert, there were ‘‘an 
awful lot of requirements for 
a developer to get into."’ 

Municipal Planning Com- 
mission Chairman Barry Br- 
eadner had commented earl- 
ier to Dr. Le Drew: ‘‘As far 
as a point of no return, I 
think this is your decision." 

When it came time for 
MPC to make a decision, on 
the development, Alderman 
Bill Shields suggested it 
should be held in abeyance 
till some of the questions 
raised had been gone into 
more thoroughly.

No agreement 
at District 6 


There was no resolution of 
differences between the ATA 
and St. Albert Protestant 
Separate School District 6 at 
a conciliation meeting held 
Monday. It now looks doubt- 
ful if the conciliator will be 
able to bring the two sides 
together. 

There have been no 
further steps taken at pre- 
sent and both sides are 
awaiting the conciliators 
report which will come down 


within two weeks. 

He may recommend an 
agreement which each side 
has the option of accepting or 
rejecting; or he may recom- 
mend that the teachers and 
the school board go to 
arbitration. 

It is not likely that either 
party would be willing to 
accept binding arbitration 
but the present course of 
action could end up that way.

six lane corridor 


Continued From Page 1 

If council can get the province to pay 90 
percent, that's a quick solution to the city’s 
problem. An alternative would cost them 
more. But we shouldn't have to pay the 
costs of an alternative plan - those costs 
should be on the town.”’ 


CITY STAFF NOT CO-OPERATIVE 
Jim Nichols, treasurer of the interim 


executive was irate at the attitude of the 
planning and engineering departments at 


town hall. ‘‘No information was available ~ 


and no maps from town hall staff he said. 
They wouldn't even admit knowledge of 
any widening of the highway, or the Ball 
Estate brief. Everyone was very secret- 
ive.’’ Mr. Nichols added that Mr. Hite was 
however told by the mayor that six lanes 
were planned, with nothing to be taken off 
the east side of the highway. 

Mr. Hite stated that there were three or 


four recommendations that the city staff 
didn't ‘‘live with.’ For example, he said, 
the recommendation from MPC that 
commercial development on the east side 
be allowed. Staff felt there wasn't 


sufficient typographical information to 
proceed. There is also a recommendation 
that nothing be developed within 25 feet of 
the ravine, but Mr. Hite noted that the city 
‘will entertain development proposals."’ 
“The city has their planners, but we will 
bring a plan to council also,"’ he said, ‘‘so 
we can maintain our neighbourhoods.” 

**You must have some input from the 
city,’' said a man in the audience. Mr. 
Nichols replied that ‘‘we will do that, but 
the present General Plan will degrade our 
neighbourhood - and the six lanes are in 
the General Plan. ‘In that case you have a 
hell of a problem,’ said the citizen. 

_ Council should have told the people about 
the six-lane plan particularly. 

Another man pointed out that there was 
no way the widening could be done on both 
sides - the St. Albert Inn is there. **There is 
no way to iry and fight with $100 donations 
- council should help us out, and we have to 
stop commercial development with the Big 


STOP COMMERCIAL TILL PLAN READY 


“The city wants the easiest, cheapest 
way,’ said Mr. Nichols, *‘so they start with 
a medical clinic - if we allow that we have 
lost our fight. If we can’t get rid of six lanes 
we can at least get development pleasing to 
the eye and safe for children - without coal 
trucks every 15 minutes, starting in 1980, If 
commercial development is started on the 
west side we have lost the opportunity to 
do these things.’’ Mr. Hite noted that ‘‘we 
did get some input into plans for a 
discotheque on that side."’ 

A citizen said the ‘‘only answer is 
something like the White Mud Freeway, if 
we must live.by a six-lane road. Another 
spokesman said zoning changes, such as

the Usher property (where clinic is 
planned) must be stopped until a proper 
plan for both sides of the highway is done. 
Another mentioned the hamburg stand and 
said a motel had been proposed. If a 
by-pass is to come that should be taken into 
consideration in the planning, he added, 
and in addition the new shopping centre 
means plans for another river crossing, 
which would help the people in our area. 
Meanwhile we will have to go by the 
highway, with safety a big worry and more 
access routes are needed. The decision to 
go six-lanes is certainly not my idea of the 
right way to go.’ ‘‘There is no damn way 
we get a six-lane highway - the only city in 
Alberta to have such"’ said a resident who 
said he had been here for 18 years. Let's 
look at a by-pass ‘‘right bloody now.”’ 

However committee members and 
others in the audience repeated that 
by-pass or no by-pass a proper develop- 
ment of highway 2 within the city must be 
planned, and that in the meantime all 
further development must be stopped. 
‘*We must get council to consider our 
requests - we want alternate routes, as well 
as no further commercial before we get a 
proper over-all plan. Even with a by-pass 
we still have problems with the highway 
emphasized Mr. Hite. 


A woman in the audience said she 
understood that property owners in the 
immediate vicinity of a planned develop- 
ment were to be advised in writing - ‘‘l 


thought that was city policy,’’ she said. 
“Why can’t I find out what the plans are 
for the road back of my home,”’ replied Mr. 
Nichols - ‘‘it’s no secret that the city has 
started buying property for the road 
widening.’’ The chairman observed that ‘‘a 
developer can get such information, but a 
citizen can't.” 


CONSULTANT DIDN'T GO TO PEOPLE 


Another woman said that the consultants 
hired to do the Ball Estate brief definitely 
did not consult with the people involved in 
the area, A man who said he was in the 
construction field stated that a berm for six 
lanes would have to be too big. ‘‘In 10 
years this highway will have to be looked at 
again, and while we all agree a by-pass is 
needed, we will still have a prime road 
through the middle of our town."* 

**But not six lanes’’ interjected a 
member of the audience. Another citizen 
said he had clocked trucks at 50 miles per 
hour at the Dairy Queen. We must find 
some way to slow trucks down the hill, he 
said - and trucks would use a by-pass if 
built. It was confirmed for another citizen 
that the town has responsibility for 
development of the highway within its 
boundaries. 

Ex-mayor Dick Plain and present 
Alderman Bill Shields, sitting together at 
the back were asked to speak. Mr. Shields 
was,'‘concerned"’ that staff did not supply 
information and said he could arrange to 


have staff people meet with the group, and | 


that the mayor and city manager had 
indicated to him that a representative could 


be assigned to this project if needed. 

A citizen said that Mayor Plain had held 
a highway discussion meeting open to an 
audience, and ‘‘we were told no highway 
development would occur except commer 
cial - and that the city was planning a 
by-pass. ‘This contradicts everything we 
have heard tonight,’’ he said, noting also 
that west side property owners of course do 
not want the land to sit idle. 

It was suggested that the west side could 
be developed as a proper industrial park - 
‘*We just can't keep on as it is - there are 
so many entrances and exits required,”’ 
said the citizen. 2 

A woman noted that a group on the west 
side did get a lawyer - let us all work 
together she said. Mr. Hite said that 
lawyer was engaged just for the Cuts 
property proposal - but we will join forces 
with all who are interested. 

Mr. Plain said the Ball Estate Brief was 
advertised for discussion at a public 


Information Please! 


hearing, and input invited. A suggestion 
that the west side be park or residential 
was something we couldn't afford, since it 
is owned by private owners, and we stayed 
with commercial, trying to make it 
compatible as part of an on-going process 
As it stands both an east and west by-pass 
are there (in the General Plan) he said, but 
a freeway into the heart of Edmonton is 
out. He suggested the group work with the 
city planning staff. 

But Chairman Hite warned that ‘‘we still 
need our people to bring up alternatives 
and we must have expertise on our side," 

It was decided that the whole group 
should make every effort to be at the June 
5 Council meeting to present their case and 
ask for time before any further develop- 
ment takes place. Prior to that another 
meeting for the Sturgeon Action Group was 
set for Thursday, June 1 at Vital Grandin 
School, with advice notices to be sent to 
people on both sides of the highway.

Protestant board sets school year 


Despite grumblings from 
an ATA representative over 
the pre-Labour Day start to 
the 1978-79 school year and 
despite some concern that 
students were being accord- 
ed the lowest priority in 
determining the new school 
year Board members at last 
approved the 1978-79 school 
year. 

Teachers will be at work 
August 31, 1978 to accept 
registrations and begin pre- 
paring for the new year, 
which will include a two- 
week break at Christmas. 

An ATA rep, Earl Ayre, 
was at the meeting, held 
May 24, apparently to listen 
to the proceedings only and 
report back to the Economic 
Policy Committee, a teacher 
group which includes their 
negotiating committee. 

Instead, he chose to speak 
during time allotted on the 
agenda to the EPC. He said 
the teachers were disturbed 
and their morale was low, 
largely due to the adversial 
approach taken during con- 
tract talks between the Board 
and the ATA. They were 
particularly unhappy with 
the fact the Board was look- 
ing at an earlier start to the 
school year, a change which 
the ATA feels should not be 
considered while negotia- 
tions are on-going. The 
Board doesn’t accept that the 
school year is an item to be 
negotiated. 

Later in the, meeting when 
the motion to approve the 
school year was on the table, 
Trustee Wes Penner said he 
was disappointed that Mr. 
Ayre chose to make his

\ 


comments, especially in light 
of the fact the Board had 
delayed setting the school 
year in an effort to be 
democratic and gather as 
much input as possible. He 
said that if both sides 
refrained from hurling com- 


ments like these it would 
ease the adversarial climate. 

Mr. Ayre then told Board 
members that the early start 
was causing scheduling pro- 
blems for teachers who had 
planned their holidays based 
on the school year set out in a 


handbook from 1977-78. 
Board Chairman Ernie 
Wynychuk told Mr. Ayre that 
there must be give and take 
from both sides. From his 
manner it was clear he felt

MPC has their bias 


showing - developer 


‘Somebody should tell the 
members of the Municipal 
Planning Commission that 
their bias is showing"’ a 
discouraged Joe Sheckter 
told the Gazette following the 
meeting held May 24. 

Mr. Sheckter and his 
business manager Wayne 
Quinn came out to the 
meeting, having received an 
agenda by mail. Although his 
shopping centre proposal for 
the area bounded by Hebert 
Road and the highway was 
the only item brought for- 
ward from the previous MPC 
meeting, it was placed last 
on the agenda. For his time 
making the trip Mr. Sheckter 
got the few seconds it took 
for Alderman Shields to 
move the item be tabled - get 
this - ‘‘for further study.” 
After seven years, said a 
disheartened Joe. It was 
decided before we ever 
arrived at the meeting. 

Last time I came out to 
MPC - two weeks earlier, 
said Mr. Sheckter, I wasin 
the middle of the agenda, but

they moved to place me at

What really frosted him 
was the fact that council 
recently passed a proposal 
for a large (250,000 square 
feet) shopping centre across 


the highway from his pro- 
perty in one night. With NO 
study, Mr. Sheckter pointed 
out - and despite vociferous 
objections by people in the 
neighbourhood. ‘On top of

Exciting meeting planned 
for aid to the handicapped 


A knowledgeable and ex- 
perienced person, Florence 
McKee, will be guest speak- 
er at a June 8 meeting of the 
utmost importance for all 
residents of St. Albert who 
have handicapped family 
members. The meeting will 
be held in the Seniors 
Centre, across from the 
Legion Hall at 7:30 p.m. 

Mrs. McKee has had a 
long involvement working 
with handicapped people in 
the Strathcona Association. 
She also worked with depen- 
dent handicapped people in 
getting the Activities Centre 


built. This project followed 
the typical pattern, Mrs. 
McKee told the Gazette. It 
began with a few people 
getting together in some- 
body's basement and just 
kept going until the job was 
done. 

Florence also has ex- 
perience in organizing asso- 
ciations for the handicapped 
and in staffing centres. At 
present she is writing a book, 
based on interviews with 98 
parents of severely handi- 
capped children.

Our 


Rodeo grounds is 
a beehive of activity 


St. Albert Kinsmen are up 
to their ears in work down on 
Riel Drive. If the rain we've 
been getting lately doesn’t 
ease up some members are 
threatening to end it all by 
jumping into the Sturgeon 
River. 

If your looking for ways to 
spend your evenings and 
weekends during the next 
three weeks, they sure could 
use a hand in the rush to get 
set up for Rodeo 117, June 
16, 17 and 18. 

They would also like to 
suggest that people refrain 
from dumping their garbage 
on their new Chuckwagon 
Track, After all its only a few 
more feet to the landfill site. 

The pads for the bleachers 
have been poured and plans 
are set for putting the stands 
are set for putting up the 
stands on the weekend. 
Seating will be for 4,500 
spectators at the biggest and 
most exciting rodeo ever to 
come to St. Albert. 

So far cash donations have 
come in from Carma De- 
velopers, LBH Home Im- 
provement Centres, Gary 
Frost - Architect, Fasco 
Rentals and the Kinette 
Club. 

Carma and Standard Gen- 
eral Construction have do- 
nated about 5,000 yards of 
black dirt each and Standard 
General brought down two, 


scrapers, a grader, two 
trucks and gravel for the 
entrance to the grounds. 

Calgary Power used their 
own equipment to erect 
power poles free of charge 
and Stanley and Associates 
did the surveying. 

The City, and in particular, 
Bob Byron and Don Corri- 
gan, have provided valuable 
co-operation. 

There's still an incredible 
amount of work to be done 
but, if the support continues 


as it has to this point, St 
Albert will definitely be 
treated to a great rodeo, 

And don't forget the 
Gymkhana. The Kinsmen 
expect over 100 entries in the 
event to be held Saturday 
and Sunday in the arena on 
Perron Street. 

Four finalists will be 
chosen in the Kinsmen 
Rodeo Queen contest at a 
gathering in the Kinsmen 
Centre on Larose Drive 
tonight at 8 p.m.

Auxiliary tea 


gets novel opening 


When the president of the 
Ladies Auxiliary to the Royal 
Canadian Legion called upon 
The Branch Padre, Len 
Musto to open their Spring 
Tea on Sunday, she didn't 
know what she was in for. 

First Rev. Musto called 
upon Vern Tompkins, past 
president of the Legion to 
blow up a balloon. Next he 
asked the convenor of the 
tea, Joanne Cockwill to tie 
the balloon, Finally he placed 
it on a chair and asked the 
Auxiliary President, Shirley 
Sorsdahl, to sit down on the 
chair. Firmly grasping the 
padre’s arm Shirley bravely 
sat down and opened the tea 
with a Bang! (It should be 
noted that President Ron 
Bull missed this opening, not 
being on hand at the proper 
time. However he was ob- 
served minutes afterwards 
carrying some large jars of 
pickles into the kitchen - no 
doubt filling in where there 
was need, as usual). 

Special guests of the 
Auxiliary, and pouring tea 
were Kay Rossiter, district 
auxiliary commander and 
Shirley Jamison; Legion Dis- 
trict Commander Percy Ros- 
siter and Wally Franks, zone 
commander (the men ge 
very adeptly, thank you}? 
Phyliss McMann, president 
of Kingsway Auxiliary, Nell 
Patton, president of Nor- 
wood, Bernadette Vaugeois, 
St. Albert Mother of the 
Year, and Elli Bull, wife of 
the Legion President, Marie 
Eschak, Past President of the 
Auxiliary and June Kendel, 
past past President and Life 
Member. 

As usual everything was 
beautifully arranged with 
gleaming silver candles and 
gorgeous fresh flowers on 
the tea table, and lovely 
large corsages for the pour- 
ers, plus charming service to 
the tables by auxiliary 
members. 

While the attendance was 
thought to be slightly down - 
and the weather was far from 
co-operative Mrs. Sorsdahl 
felt it was definitely succ- 
essful and the bazaar items, 
baked goods and plant sale 
all went well. 

Door prizes were won by 
Laurie Johnson, a pressure 
cooker and little Miss Winkl- 
meier, a house plant. Floral 
arrangements were won by 
June Kendel and Addie 
Webb, the latter being 


donated by the new florist 
shop on Grosvenor Boule-

busy bees enrol 


Tuesday, May 23 was a 
very exciting enrollment day 
for 20 girls who are charter 
members in the 4th St. 
Albert Busy Bee Hive. A part 
of the Girl Guide Movement, 
the second Hive in the 
Lacombe Park area began 
April 25 and meets Tuesdays 
at 4 p.m. in Bertha Kennedy 
School. 

The purpose of the group 
is to promote happiness, 
helpfulness, health and a 
love of nature in girls aged 
five to seven years. To 
qualify for enrollment each 
girl is required to attend four 
meetings and know and un- 
derstand their motto and 
promise. 

Each girl was presented 
with badges and a certificate 
of enrollment by their lea- 


ders. Commissioner Jeffares 
presented scarves and heard 
the promise and motto of: 
Michelle Merchant, Kelly 
Jean Swain, Candice Leibel, 
Treena Alspach, Suzanne 
Yashiw, Christine Herfst, 
Tonya Durkin, La Dawn

Kerry Mclimoyle, Sara Wat- 
erton, Trina Lawrence, Sh- 
elly Hockett, Shannon Stein, 
and Susan Parks. 

Commissioner Jeffares al- 
so enrolled the leaders as 
Guiders. 

After the ceremony coffee, 
juice and cookies were 
served to the many family 
members who attended.

Folks on Alcott plan street party 


What better way to meet 
your new neighbours than 
getting together for a party? 
The folks on Alcott Crescent 
will be barbecuing and 
partying Friday, June 16 on 
the street and in driveways in 
an all out effort to get to 
know each other better. 

The idea came to Alcott 
with the arrival of Carol and 
Gary Shedeck from Winni- 
peg last year. The Shedeck’s 
had taken part in a similar 
get-together in that city and 
Carol mentioned to her 
neighbours that it might be a 


good idea to try it on Alcott 
Crescent. 

A poll was taken to 
determine interest and the 
response was unanimously in 
favour of going ahead. 

The women collected $2.50 
per household to cover the 
cost of communal foods like 
salads and buns and or- 
ganized one driveway and 
garage as a beer garden and 
focal point of the barbecuing. 
Families provide their own 
meat and alcoholic refresh- 
ments. Coca-Cola is provi- 
ding soft drinks at wholesale. 


NOW AVAILABLE IN YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD 


The group acquired a permit 
from the City and will be 
roping off the crescent for 
the evening. 

Several activities are plan- 
ned for the children and 
adults including hula hoop 
contests, tug-of-wars, three- 
legged races, volleyball and 
spot dances. There will also 
be a stereo sound system. 
Prizes donated by St. Albert 
businesses will be awarded 
to winners. 

Sounds like a heck of an 
idea!

If you want to see local residents genuinely trying 
to improve the quality of life in St. Albert go green at 
the gills with frustration, the Municipal Planning 
Commission is the place to watch it. The Gazette 
has been covering this clinically-run exercise in 
what sometimes amounts to cynicism and near 
insults, for nearly three years. 


In effect it could be said that the MPC has gone on 
a course which subtly discriminates against the 
very people it seeks to represent. 


Jn 1986 those elected members who serve on both 
MPC and St. Albert Council will be going on the 
campaign trail seeking votes and telling the people 
how well they have “served” them in the past, 
and how they would like to do so in the future. 
However it can be seen that the municipal 
government has lost contact with the people 
over the past three years. 


A recent MPC meeting had before it three 
applicants who were trying to improve the 
quality of life in St. Albert. One wanted to 
develop a office commercial centre and 
suddenly found that he, not the city, would have 
to find $35,000 for road access to the site, 
which for the present is not essential. Those 
applying for a dance studio and athletic centre 
left glum because they, not the city, would have 
to spend more than $100,000 for lot excavation 
and retainer wall. They were also told that their 
building drawings were more suited to Riel Drive 
Industrial Park than in St. Albert's downtown 
core, where the planner’s view of asthetics 
would not be well served.

Potential developer of a shopping centre in St. 
Albert's south end is in for more studies of 
alternatives - this after seven years of the same 
diet. Mr. Sheckter should have the number 31 
on his back (like the last day of the month) since 
the MPC usually manages to keep him last on 
the agenda. Then it’s “times up” and goodbye 
again Joe. 


The most recent case of citizens versus MPC 
was forcibly brought out at a public meeting of a 
citizens action group held last Friday evening. 
The group is strongly opposed to a six-lane 
highway splitting the town. As emphasized by 
the chairman and others, ordinary citizens have 
reached the conclusion that they have to retain 
their own experts to fight the experts at city hall. 
City consultants on the Ball Estate Brief did not 
consult the citizens involved, it was pointed out 
at the meeting. 


While the city was having trouble getting more 
than a handful of people out to public hearings 
on the transportation studies and the general 
plan, a meeting of citizens from the Forest Lawn 
area was able to attract 350 to a public meeting 
advertised for the Community Hall on the Shell 
property in November 1976. In fact the former 
council left their regular meeting early to get to

neighbor to the south, he 
could see the whole Cana- 
dian defence establishment 
under the carpet, whether it 
was nuclear or not. 

This could possibly explain 
the woeful state of Canada’s 
armed forces, with only 


perimenting with the idea 
that national security is not 
necessarily equated with 
military strength. 

Canada’s defence forces re- 
present Federal Government 
tokenism in the matter of 


the hall and find out what the people were 
thinking. 


Which leads us to the conclusion that the 
former mayor actually intimidated a great many 
people with his penchant for hiring a barrage of 
experts who could often turn aside citizen 
objections rather easily, by citing figures and 
“expert” opinions. But after all who knows better 
than ordinary residents what they want for their 
neighbourhoods and their city? 


Under the former council, which included 
Aldermen Breadner, Throndson and Smith, the 
Recreation Board, Police Commission and PSS 
Committee were replaced by one Community 
Advisory Board, with citizens invited to apply, 
submitting “qualifications”. Isn't any interested 
citizen acceptable? 


Most of the current problems concerning 
residents, including also the concerns over loss 
of open space and proliferation of multiple 
density in Grandin Park, were inherited by the 
new council, whose hands are tied in these 
areas. However a new attitude in dealing with 
future matters of concern to residents will be a 
blessing. 


The residents are aroused and prepared to join 
forces, put up money, and dig in their heels to 
protect the quality of their neighbourhoods, and 
to have a say in municipal planning. General 
Plan not withstanding, they want a “proper plan” 
with their contributions included, before any 
further developed proceeds on Highway 2 withir 
the city.

Why was the Cuts proposal turned down? 


In a recent issue of your valuable paper, a 
letter was published from Mrs. Ethel Cuts, 
headed ‘A Dream Destroyed’. She very 
eloquently expressed her disappointment at the 
refusal of the municipal planning commission to 
grant permission for the erection of a 
condominium on her property to house senior 
citizens. 

This was a project very dear to the heart of 
the late Dr. Bill Cuts, as | know from frequently 
hearing him discuss it, and | would have thought 
would have been a most suitable and useful 
monument, or rather memorial, to the memory of 
one who gave so much and so freely of his time 
and energy to our community. 

Why was it turned down? Was there no need 
for such a facility? | believe if the planning 
commission held this as a reason, it would be 
easy to refute it. Being past the age of 
retirement myself, | know many friends and 
acquaintances who woulld be happy to spend 
their declining years in such beautiful and 
peaceful surroundings. My own parents lived 
happily under those same trees until they 
passed on, and loved every one of them. It was 


.- A glaring error in judgement 


a battle to be allowed to take down the dead 
ones! 

lf there is a demonstrable need, it would 
indeed be interesting to know what powerful 
consideration induced the MPC to turn thumbs 
down on such a beneficial and eminently 
suitable plan. That they would bow to the selfish 
prejudice of a handful of nearby residents, | can 
hardly credit. Surely their responsibility must be 
to work for the greatest benefit to the 
community as a whole, without fear or favour. 
Perhaps if enough responsible citizens acted 
together, they might be persuaded to reconsider, 
or at least give a reasonable and valid 
explanation for such a remarkable and glaring 
error of judgement. The Commission, | suppose, 
is not responsible to the ratepayers but 


To 
The Editor y 


certainly the council is. 

As for the seven so called ‘neighbours’, 
whose protests gave the board an excuse to 
turn the project down, these people surprise 
me. After all, if they are fortunate, they will 
eventually become senior citizens themselves. 
Is the sight and presence of senior citizens in 
their neighbourhood so objectionable because it 
might force them to think of their own future? Or 
do they fear wild parties and vandalism? 
Perhaps they are looking at the wrong end of 
the life span. 

Surely the planning board must have some 
less frivolous reason than these people's 
objection, to turn down a generous offer that 
holds promise of so much potential advantage 
to our whole community. 

If so, for the sake of their own credibility, they 
should declare it.

Grandin becoming a concrete jungle 


Given the challenge of scatterbraining the 
word “GREEN,” many thoughts would arise. 
Color, envy, nature, too much pizza, etc. are 
some of the ideas that could be expressed. The 
one most likely to appear in the minds of the 
majority of St. Albert's decision makers is 
$$SHSH$H$HS. 

This becomes more and more obvious as 
Mother Nature’s “greenery” gives way to the 
concrete jungle in St. Albert. 

Five years ago one was impressed with the 
spaciousness and abundance of greenery in 
areas such as Grandin Park. At the present time 
there is one almost completed small shopping 
facility on Grosvenor Blvd. being added to the 
row housing put up a couple of years ago. (This 
was once a nice play area). 

Another shopping facility is planned for 
Grandin Road. Yet another will appear very soon 
at the west end of Gainsborough Avenue. Our 
planners have ignored a petition to stop this 
latter from happening. Are we so desperate for 
“quick” purchases that we cannot take the trip 
to the already existing facilities? 

Can anyone justify three such facilities all 
within one and a half miles of each other? Have 
the planners given consideration to the opinions 
of persons who would facilitate these centres or 
do they presume to know what is best for us? 

Our sister city Edmonton could serve as an 
example to the fathers of St. Albert. In the high 
density area of Oliver, on 121 Street and 102 
Avenue a block of old homes was torn down 
and a beautiful, well planned park is going in. 

If valuable land exists in city centre, this area 
could be on the top of the list. This park is only 


three blocks from an already existing, highly 
imaginative playground. 

It is time someone got around to listening to 
the priorities of the people in this city and 
perhaps more pressure should be applied to 
see that this happens. If we do not take an 
interest now we may be joined in the Tot Lot in 


Gordon Crescent one day by ex-city officials 
wondering “where we all went wrong.”

Highway safety suggestion 


There exists, within the borders of the City of 
St. Albert on highway #2, a major traffic safety 
hazard in the northern approach to St. Anne 
Street traffic light. Reaction time is short, 
especially in the icy winter months, due to the 
proximity of the traffic lights to the bottom of the 
rather steep descent of the hill for all 
northbound traffic. 

In order to avoid possible future tragedy to 
the citizens of St. Albert, or those passing 
through, | would like to propose the following as 
a possible solution. That an amber flashing light 


be installed prior to the crest of the hill 
indicating to all approaching traffic “PREPARE 
TO STOP WHEN AMBER LIGHTS ARE 
FLASHING" as is provided in other centres with 
similar blind spots. 

| hope that those responsible for such 
provisions give this suggestion serious consid- 
eration.

Alberta is having a Home Coming. 

Though we have sent out over 1400 
invitations to former residents of Wanham, 
Peoria, Belloy and surrounding districts we 
know it is impossible to contact everyone this 
way. 

We hope that through your paper we may 


reach some of the neighbours we might have 

missed. All visitors will be most welcome also.

Developing all four lots 
could slap the developers 
with an extra $75,000, if 
things like parking require- 
ments were taken into con- 
sideration. 

A sharp cut came from 
City Planner Wayne Gordon 
who told the developers their 


project was ‘‘more appro- 
priate for the Riel Industrial 
Park than the downtown."' 
Although he qualified this 
remark later, as MPC dis- 
cussed the buildings design 
and materials. 

The long and the short of it 
was that council will get a 
recommendation from MPC 
not to support the dev- 
eloper’s proposal. 

Mr. Gordon concluded that 
if others were to be offered 
the property, they should be 
given the chance of an 
alternate plan, ‘‘or we talk 
with others who can handle 
the problem.” 


AN UNEXPECTED RAY 
of hope relieved seven years 
of frustration for landowner 
Joe Sheckter who has been 
trying to develop some lands 
in south Akinsdale as a large 
shopping centre. 

MPC decided that staff 
will be asked to develop in 
consultation with Mr, Sheck- 
ter a list of the preferred land 


uses for South Akinsdale, for 
the consideration of MPC. 

This decision seems partly 
due to an earlier MPC 
meeting with consultant lan 
Geddes who told MPC that 
delays on the south Akins- 
dale plan had virtually ruined 
Mr. Sheckter’s credibility in 
the marketplace. 

Mayor Ron Harvey supp- 
orted the MPC decision and 
said he would like to see the 
site developed and see if a 
solution could be found. 


budget 


Continued From Page 1 
Joe's High School in Edmon- 
ton will begin using public 
transit in the fall. 

Trustees will also receive 
no increase in fees for the 
third year running although 
Mr. Porter moved later in the 
meeting that the Finance and 
Audit Committee study trus- 
tee honouria which would 
include looking at fees paid 


to trustees in other districts, 

Textbook rental in all 
divisions has also been in- 
creased slightly to bring in 
another $1,350, 

Construction of new sch- 
ools in the recent past has 
resulted in an unsupported 
(not covered by the Province) 
debt service charge of 
approximately $112,000 whi- 
ch will appear in the budget 
each year for 25 years, New 
school construction could, of 
course, increase this figure. 
The total debt services in the 
1978-79 budget amount to 
$537,464 of which the Pro- 
vince contributes approxi- 
mately $425,000. 

Salary expenditures for the 
1978-79 year which total 
$2,825,891 show an increase 
of about six percent over last 
year. At present the Board 
has not settled with the ATA 


negotiators over teacher | 


contracts for 1978-79 and is 
awaiting a date for con- 
ciliation. Should the teachers 
eventually settle for a figure 


above the six percent pro- 
vincial guideline (and they 
would if they are successful 
in gaining parity with tea- 
chers in the Edmonton Public 


System) the Board would be 
forced into a deficit position 
and taxpayers would pick up 
the difference in the future.

their part. 

Trustee Gary Hodgins said 
he didn’t like being on this 
merry-go-round (in reference 
to the several times the 
school year had been dis- 
cussed and delayed). He said 
the children were being put 
at the lower echelon of 
priorities and that the best 
alternative for them would 
have been the original year 
proposed by Superintendent 
Elmer Gish. The earlier 
proposal was based on a 200 
day school year, 190 of which 
would be instructional, Sch- 
ool opening day would have 
been Monday, August 28, 
1978. The new year, app- 
roved by the Board is based 
on 197 days, including 189 
instructional. Both years 
provide for a two week 
Christmas break but the high 
school will lose one day at the 
end of each semester which 
would have been used for 
closing functions. 

Mr. Gish had earlier stated 


that there had been some 
concern shown by members 
of the Paul Kane teaching 
staff that the two-week break 
for Christmas would nega- 
tively effect the learning 
process for students on the 
semester system. 

Mr. Hodgins commented, 
‘we want to be co-operative 
with the teachers but we 
come in public and are 
accused of being unco-op- 
erative by the ATA. Now we 
are putting high school 
students in a bad position.”’ 
He said he would support the 
superintendent's latest re- 
commendation but he sus- 
pected Mr. Gish would still 
prefer the 200 day year. He 
hoped that the Board would 
be more responsible next 
year. 

He then added, ‘We're 
sitting here recommending a 
negative school year for high 
school students. It concerns 
me."’ 

Trustee Shirley McCaffery 
asked the superintendent if 
students would benefit from 
the two week Christmas 
vacation and Mr. Gish re- 


plied that it wouldn't. ‘‘In 
that case,’’ said Trustee 
McCaffery, ‘I won't support 
the school year. I can't 
understand why Gary can 
support it after he put the 
other case so well. The needs 
of the students should come 
first.”’ 

Mr. Gish told Board 
members that other districts 
were going with the two 
week Christmas break and 
that he decided District 6 
should try it and evaluate it. 
He said his current recom- 
mendation was sincere. 

The Board passed the 
1978-79 school year with 
Trustee McCaffery in oppo- 
sition. 

Registration for all stu- 
dents will be August 31, 1978 
instead of the Monday, 
September 4 (the ATA’s 
preference). The first day of 
regular classes will be 
Tuesday, September 5, 1978. 
All grades will receive a 
two-week break at Christ- 
mas.

that,’’ he added - ‘‘that 
centre will require a left hand 
turn off the highway. They 
don't own a quarter of the 
land I do and have neither 
proper access or parking 
space. I just can’t under- 
stand it, unless it is straight 
bias on their part.” 

Meanwhile his taxes went 
up three thousand percent, 
from $400 to $12,000. And to 
comply with the city’s 
request he has invested 
$300,000 in services. 

All I am asking council to 
do is simply zone the 
property, said Joe. Then they 
can give us their guidelines 
for development. But they do 
it backwards and ask us to 
provide aesthetics. How can 
we plan aesthetics when we 
don’t know whether our 
property will be zoned for a 
hotel or a food store? Let 
alone whatever the planner 
thinks is appropriate. 

Alderman Throndson said 
in council ‘‘If the developer

will, it is hoped by the 
Steering Committee, get an 
Association for the Handi- 
capped off the ground in St. 
Albert. People like Eyla 
Rogers, Jo Nielsen, Ron 
Yeates, Helen Durand, Gail 
MclIndoe and Kathleen Hi- 
ckey have been doing the 
spade work to get a St. 
Albert Association started 
since last November. 

At the June 8 meeting, to 
be chaired by Charles Gale of 
the Community Services De- 
partment, bylaws will be 
presented for passing and an 
election of officers will be 
held. At the close of the 
meeting coffee will be served 
and there will be ample time 
provided for questions from 
all interested people. 

The Steering Committee 
formed in St. Albert is 
unique, in that from the 
outset it has planned that the 
whole field of handicapped 
services has been taken in - 
physical, mental, hearing or 
vision impaired, from par- 
tially to seriously handicap- 
ped people. 

The committee is well 
aware and wants to make the 
community aware of the kind 
of support, both monetary 
and physical that families 
need in caring for handi- 
capped members in their 
homes. 

Parents are also in need of 
support and counselling. 
Families with handicapped 
members can become insular 
and withdrawn without com- 
munity support, including 
emotional support. Help is 
also needed in getting 
necessary additions for pub- 
lic buildings to enable

more logical, but the aca- 
demic aldermen seem to 
enjoy playing with somebody 
else’s destiny. Competence 
is lacking in the engineering 
and planning departments 
and common sense is lacking 
on council said Mr. Sheckter, 

*‘And council expresses 
worry about the 94 - 6 
percent ratio of residential 
tax base compared to comm 
ercial-industrial. I simply 
don’t understand it.”’ 

It is cold comfort indeed by 
Mr. Sheckter, like others, is 
well aware that there is more 
than one developer in the 
region who ‘‘wouldn't touch 
St. Albert with a 10 foot 
pole.” 


them. For example, it was 
pointed out the swimming 
pool at Leduc is being 
planned from the beginning 
with the needs of the handi- 
capped in mind. Shopping 
centre planning can also be 
done to include these fea- 
tures, but the handicapped 
can't get such designs 
accomplished unless they 
have solid community supp- 
ort. 

An Association also serves 
as an excellent contact point 
for new people with handi- 
caps coming into the city. 

The Steering Committee is 
asking all handicapped fam- 
ilies to be represented at the 
June 8 meeting in the Senior 
Citizens Centre at 7:30 p.m. 

Who knows? Perhaps 
some day the handicapped 
will have a centre in St. 
Albert too.

When the lunatic fringe joins forces with the craven cowards, the community is the injured party. This sad truism 
was proven once again at Lions Park recently. A charred picnic table gives black testimony to the moral poverty 
of a pyromania, while the cookhouse is tribute to the lack of imagination in our local writers of graffiti. In the 
photo inset, shards of glass, remnants of a beer drinkers’ rampage, paint a depressing picture of local excesses. 
Isn't it a pity these “artistes” don't have the courage to sign their work!

Meeting in Edmonton re- 
cently with Education Mini- 
ster Julian Koziak, repre- 
sentatives of The Alberta 
Teachers’ Association ex- 
pressed a number of con- 
cerns regarding curriculum 
changes in the past year. 

Presenting a brief for the 
ATA were president K. M. 
(Mac) Kryzanowski, vice- 
presidents Doug Trace and 
Chuck Rose, past president 
Halvar Jonson, executive 
secretary Bernie Keeler, and 
associate executive secretary 
Don Corse. 

In the brief the association 
commended the government 
for the quality of the curri- 
culum changes, which it said 
have answered some of the 
expressed concerns of tea- 
chers and have enhanced the 
quality of the schools’ 
educational offering. 

However, the ATA noted, 
there are a number of 
concerns: the rate of change 
is faster than it needs to be or 
should be, as a result of

which there is insufficient 
provision for required in- 
service training and teaching 
materials; there is increasing 
restriction on the methods 
teachers may use; and some 
of the new courses mandate 
the use of most or all of the 
time available for the course, 
making it difficult for téach- 
ers to pay adequate attention 
to individual differences and 
local needs. 

The association brief also 
included the ATA response 
to Alberta Education and 
Diploma Requirements (the 
Harder paper) and resolu- 
tions approved at the Annual 
Representative Assembly in 
March, 

Among the issues dis- 
cussed were: a request for 
more emphasis on environ- 
mental education; an ex- 
pression of concern that a 
policy asking for teachers to 
receive copies of all reports 
on their professional perfor- 
mance has been approved six 


‘ATA meets with Koziak 


times now without govern- 
ment response; a request 
that the government take 
action to discourage large 
class sizes; and an appeal for 
increased provision of pro 
grams for the detection, 
diagnosis, and remediation 
of learning disabilities in 
young children. 

The association further 
asked that the government 
conduct studies on two 
topics: 1) the possible sig 
nificant differences in edu 
cational opportunities be 
tween city and rural schools, 
and 2) the increasing serious 
problem of alcohol consump 
tion by school-age children 

In addition, an amendment 
to The School Act 
proposed which would pro 
vide a teacheft with the right 
to inspect any file kept on 
him or her by an employer 
and that such a file be 
indexed as to its contents and

was 


ATA “pleased” 
with province 


The following is a state- 
ment by ATA president K. 
M. Kryzanowski regarding 
The Goals of Basic Education 
for Alberta, which were app- 
roved in the Legislature on 
May 1S. 

The Alberta Teachers’ As- 
sociation is very pleased that 
the government of Alberta, 
in keeping with its emphasis 
on education as a priority, 
has taken a positive step in 
the passage this week of the 
Goals of Basic Education for 
Alberta. We commend the 
government for the time and 
effort it provided for these 
deliberations to produce a 
clearly defined direction for 
education in the province. 
Furthermore, the Associa- 
tion is appreciative of the fact 
that the government made a 
commitment to obtaining 
public input by introducing 
the goals statement during 
the fall sitting of the Legis- 
lature and allowing it to be 
held over until now in the 
spring sitting. 

ATA policy states that 
“the setting of the broad 
aims of education is the 
responsibility of society."’ 
Therefore the Association 
welcomes this action by our 
elected legislators as an 
activity appropriate to their 


roles as spokesmen for so- 
ciety. We were pleased to 
note the positive attitude 
toward the work of teachers 
and the schools that was 
evident in the recent debate. 

Schools for too long have 
been required to overextend 
their responsibilities into 
areas given up by parents, 
the community, and the ch- 
urch. Asa result, teachers at 
times have become the 
scapegoats for many societal 
problems. The ATA finds it 
encouraging that the goals 
statement apparently recog- 
nizes this difficulty while at 
the same time indicating 
support for the areas which 
have been receiving the 
greatest emphasis in school 
programs. This represents a 
vindication of the role sch- 
ools have been attempting to 
fulfill in Alberta. 

We are in a period of close 
examination of the purposes 
and values of education. 
With the goals of education 
in Alberta being more clearly 
defined by the government, 
teachers may now get on 
with the job of using their 
expertise to translate these 
broad guidelines into specific 
teaching stragegies which 
will meet the expectations of 
society.

THE END, 
CAPITOL SQUARE, EDMONTON 
By Jim McIntyre 


Backed up with a brilliant script, Burt Reynolds has 
directed and taken part in one of the finest comedies I’ve 
seen since the George Burns movie ‘‘Oh God!"’ 

He takes the part of a man who is given a death sentence 
by his doctor, having but a short time to go with a fatal blood 
disease. 

Reynold’s mind flips over on its morbid side; he starts 
weeping uncontrollably in the elevator, begins to follow 
funeral corteges with no care for his own safety, and has an 


uproarious session in the confessional with an inexperienced 


priest, his first for 22 years. 


Actually Reynolds manages to remain deadpan

plus photographic documen- 
tation. The show will be at 
the Proyincial Museum from 
June 3 to August 13, 

The exhibit looks beyond 
the outward primitive app- 
earance of a simple race of 
hunters, into the complex 
system of aboriginal beliefs, 
social organization, art, edu- 
cation and the working re- 
lationships between these 
elements. 

The culture and art of the 
Australian Aborigine became 
rich and highly developed. 
This exhibit shows that 
economic, social, psycholo- 
gical and individual security 
was provided for both the 
weak and the able. Humor, 
art, dignity and responsible 
leadership were all valued. 
High efficient procedures 
were developed to educate 
the young. The past, present 
and future, known and un- 
known were bound together 
in belief expressed in song, 
dance and decorative arts. 

As late as 1965 a few 


Aborigine tribes had never 
seen a white person, Some of 
their paintings in the show 
illustrate their legends, and 
are a direct message from a 
stone-age people with a 
heritage of the land that goes 
back 40,000 years. 

For the Australian Abor- 
igine, art was a part of both 
daily life and religious ritual, 
Even the simplest boom- 
erang, shield, spear, water 
carrier or household. utensil 
was symbolically decorated.

throughout the film, staying cleverly aloof from the fast 
dialogue and the insanely humourous sequences that the 
movie theme provides. 

Apart from the more boring sequences when he tries to 
catch up for lost time with his many girl friends, and tie up 
loose ends with his family, there is plenty to keep you 
laughing. (So this movie is well worth a trip from your 
comfortable pad in St. Albert). 

The movie really explodes into life after Reynolds has 
botched a suicide attempt and finds himself in the nuthouse 
regaled by the mating call of a black grouse from one of the 
inmates and the paranoid delusions of Dom DeLuise. 

DeLuise is really the piece de resistance of this delightful 
poke into the taboo area of pre-death; fighting his own battle 
out loud with two divergent personalities and trying to help 


ground itself provided a 
medium for artistic expres- 
sion and story-telling. Con- 
struction of large ground 
paintings often involved as 
many as 30 Aborigines. 

Other interesting areas of 
the exhibit are the totem pole 
carvings by the people in 
jungle areas and religious 
paintings done on eucalyptus 
bark. 

The Museum is open 
seven days a week, 9 a.m. to 
9 p.m. Admission is free. 


Hotel” has been very well 
received by her many fans. 

An added attraction will 
be the performance of the 
Goose Creek Symphony, 
appearing as part of the 
evenings entertainment. 

$7, $8 and $9 tickets are 
on sale at all Exhibition 
outlets, the Coliseum box 
office, all Edmonton Wood- 
ward stores, the Bonnie 
Doon Mall and HUB Mall 
at the University of Alber 
ta. Cost of the tickets 
include admission to the 
Exhibition Grounds for Kl 
ondike Days 


The players and stage hands were joined by the audience showing 
appreciation to Cameron Ross. Cameron was the director of the Paul Kane 
production of Matchmaker, which played May 25 - 27. It was an excellent play. 


Reynolds finish himself off, this combination is a winner for 
laughs. 

Somehow Reynolds learns that life, no matter how much 
you have left to live, is the sweetest thing to hold on to. But 
he only comes to this stage after the final suicide attempt 
when he puts out to sea hopefully to drown. 

His drowning attempt sees him break surface screaming I 
want to live, and desperately asking God to give him 
strength to reach the shore. 

The Good Lord grants the request and the movie ends 
well with more comedy between DeLuise and Reynolds. 

A great show and very cheering amid the sudden gloomy 
news from the UN and the NATO summit that our days may 
be numbered on this planet if the superpowers don’t stop 
playing soldiers with each other.

Don Sebesky was the big 
hand behind ‘‘You Can't Go 
Home Again'’ producing, 
arranging and conducting 
the excellent musical talent, 
which is on this disc. While 
Sebesky undoubtedly aided 
Baker considerably on Chet’s 
comeback album, he is also 
the cause of it’s failings. 
Basically this is a good 
record and has some very 
solid music, but the back- 
ground is too overpowering 
on most of the tracks and 
clutters the quality with an 
overabundance of sound. 
Mind you, the solo efforts are 
excellent. 

**Love For Sale,’’ a Cole 
Porter tune starts off the 
album and contains some 
great music, but the com- 
plicated background reduces 


its appeal. John Scofield 
plays a mean guitar and is 
the feature of this cut. Tony 
Williams is at his level best 
here and throughout the 
album, but is on the edge of 
being a little overexuberant 
at times. Alphonso Johnson 
plays a mooged electric bass, 
which is different, yet only a 
foil for the craftsmanship of 
Ron Carter on acoustic bass. 
Michael Brecker throws in 
some good licks on tenor sax. 

Ed Bud Powell’s number, 
“Un Poco Loco,”’ finishes off 
the first side and adds 
Hubert Laws on flute, which 
doesn't really add much to 
this tune. Chet lays down a 
solid solo on this track, while 
Brecker fills in with some 
heavy sax work. Scofield is 
outstanding. The. backgr- 
ound again consumes the 
up-front sound, often coming 
out just short of noise with 
some good licks escaping 
from it. 

The title track is a Sebesky 
creation and is easily the best 
total performance on the 
album. Sebesky seems to do 
a much better job on his own 
material. There is no over- 
bearing background and 
Chet is able to blow his 
strongest. Paul Desmond 
adds his usual brilliant touch 
on alto sax. He appears on 
this one track only as his 
failing strength diminished. 
Four months later, Paul died 
of lung cancer, a great loss to 
the world of jazz. 

‘*El Morro," originally 
“The Rape of El Morro,"’ is 
another Sebesky composition 
and finishes off the album. 
The background is subor- 
dinated making this cut 
definitely listenable. Michael 
Brecker puts out his best for 
this tune. Hubert Laws 
appears again, this time on 
bass flute and piccolo, Per- 
cussionist Ralph MacDonald 
backs this arrangements with 
some effective highlights. 

I rate this album as ‘‘three 
ears,’’ playable but not 
something you will listen to 
all that often, it will wind up 
in the middle of your record

(1 ear - dust collector, 2

FURTHER NOTES 


I came across an album, 
“Carnegie Hall Concert (vol- 
ume one),’’ which brings 
Gerry Mulligan and Chet 
Baker back together doing 
some of their old stuff. This 
live album was recorded on 
November 24, 1974 after a 
great effort by DonFriedman 
(the producer not the pianist) 
to bring these musicians 
together again after a 10 year 
break. 

The most intriguing point 
of this l.p. is the number 
**My Funny Valentine’’ whi- 
ch is played almost note for 
note by Gerry and Chet as it 
appeared in the '50’s. 


On the same side is ‘‘Song 
For Strayhorn’’ which Mul- 
ligan wrote for Duke Elling- 
ton’s inseparable companion 
who died in 1967. This 
number is a very good jazz 
piece and is the first time it 
has appeared on a disc. 

An oldie, ‘‘Line for Lyons”’ 
starts off side one and is 
followed by ‘‘Song for an 
Unfinished Woman" which 
are both very well done. 

Appearing on the album 
with Baker and Mulligan are 

Ron Carter bass, Bob 
James - keyboard, John Sco- 
field - guitar, Harvey Mason 
- drums and Dave Samuels - 
vibraharp and percussion 

The album was produced 
by Creed Taylor, as was 
volume two, which I didn’t 
listen to. I rate volume one as 
a3".

ump till the bitter end, when 


By Monica Tapp 

Well, here lam again. Due 
to the long weekend, I didn’t 
get an article in last week but 
never fear - the Mutt (that’s 
me) is here! 

Friday, the 19th was the 
S.A.H.S. Grad. The excite- 
ment penetrated even the 
hardened hearts of the 
teachers who were more 
lenient and friendly than 
usual. The warm summary 
was perfect for the Grad - not 
to mention the post grad! 
“Old Sol's’’ dazzling grin 
was unmatched but for the 
brilliance of the grads’ 
triumphant smiles as they 
received their diplomas. 

Barb Kathol was named 
‘Grad of the Year’’ - an 
honor indeed deserved by 
this friendly and pretty grad.

Vacation Bible School 
planned 


The St. Albert Evangelical 
Lutheran Church is offering 
two separate weeks of Vaca- 
tion Bible School. The focus 
will be on the theme 
Hosanna and will help the 
children to celebrate with joy 
and thanksgiving the many 
gifts God has given us in the 
gospel and in His creation. 


The Royal Canadian Le- 
gion has committed itself to a 
two-fold program that will 
endeavour to encourage 
Quebecers to remain in a 
united country, and to in- 
fluence Anglophones to pr- 
ess for constitutional chan- 
ges that will minimize 
existing problems and help 
secure the future of Canada. 

After a series of meetings 
and exploratory discussions 
over the past six months 
between senior Legion exe- 
cutives and legal and econo- 
mic experts from across 
Canada, it was concluded

The first session will be

pre-schoolers (ages 3-4-5). 
The second session will be 
July 24-28, 9 - 11:30 a.m., for 
Grades 1 - 6. All children in 
the community are welcome 
to attend, and we would 
appreciate an early regis- 
tration so that final plans can 


that an important role could 
be played by Canada’s lar- 
gest fraternal organization at 
this time of unity crisis. 

In a major policy statement 
made in Calgary on April 1 
before a meeting of Legion 
executives from the province 
of Alberta, Mr. Robert 
McChesney, immediate past 
president of the $00,000 
member Legion said that 
Canada was in grave peril of 
breaking up, and that the 
Legion, rather than sit idly 
by and watch the dis- 
memberment of our country, 
would take a leadership 
position in influencing public 
opinion on the side of change 
and the preservation of a 
single nation. ‘‘There must 
be a prompt and significant 
change in attitude in every 
part of our nation,”’ said 
McChesney. ‘‘It is the 
Legion's opinion that there is 
no time to lose because the 
majority of Canadians are 
unaware that a major crisis 
exists. The justifiable fear 
that the French have of 
losing their culture afd 
language must be recogni- 
zed." 

Principal steps in the pro- 
gram were outlined as 
follows: 

1. Because of the size, 
composition, and nationwide 
structure of the Legion, its 
members will first be alerted 
and provided with informa- 
tion on the urgency and 
dimension of the crisis. 

2. Members will use their 
position in their respective 
communities to influence 
other’ Canadians and to 
encourage additional organ- 
izations, the public_and the 
media, to become associated 
in the program to better 
understand the complex is- 
sues at stake. 

3. A Legion Task Force 
has been formed to visit the 

10 provinces to brief Legion 
officers on Canadian unity 
and to explain the decisions 
taken. These officers will be

Legion assembles forces 
for national unity cause 


encouraged to inform the 
Task Force of the local 
difficulties being experien- 
ced by our Canadian nation 
in the various provinces and 
regions, and to form pro- 
vincial task forces for more 
detailed activity. 

Mr. McChesney further 
stated that the Legion hopes 
to impress upon its mem- 
bership the fact that Canada 
is faced not only with the 
problem of Quebec inde 
pendance, but that there 
exist in other regions other 
problems which, if unresol- 
ved, would present an 
equally complex and difficult 
situation. 

“We also hope,”’ he said, 
**that this evidence of fair 
play will convince those who 
are not currently supporting 
the Federal system in Can- 
ada that there is indeed hope 
and that the necessary ch- 
anges will be made. Lan- 
guage and culture can be 
better ‘protected in a united 
Canada." 

Mr. McChesney concluded 
by saying that if Anglo- 
phones, by their goodwill, 
understanding and support 
for change can encourage a 
majority of Quebecers to vote 
against separatism then a 
giant step forward will have 
been taken by Canada. 

The Legion Task Force will 
visit Edmonton in June. 

Another major step taking 
by the Legion is the pre- 
sentation of a Brief to the 
Pepin-Robarts Task Force on 
National Unity. It advocates 
patriation of the Canadian 
Constitution along with an 
amending formula and con- 
current major amendments; 
that fundamental rights, in- 
cluding linguistic, be inclu- 
ded in the Constitution; that 
changes be made in our 
electoral system; provision 
for the provinces to have 
more participation in app- 
ointing people to the Senate, 
the Supreme Court and cer- 
tain Federal agencies.

ALPINE COTTAGE 
Plan No. P10-2-121 

Get the most out of life with this unique summer cottage, 
featured as the plan of the week, 

The heavy shake roof is complemented by the ginger- 
bread trim of the gables. Vertical battens on the walls, 
decorative railings, with the clever use and design of the 
Support beams, create an attractive exterior, There’s a 
driveway under the sundeck, which can be enclosed, leave 


it as a carport as shown, or if it’s more desireable close it 
in for storage. 


Directly from the carport illustrated here, the outside 
stairway leads to the large sundeck and front entrance, At 
the side, it’s only a few short steps from the back door and 
kitchen. 

Double doors from the sundeck open to a spacious living 
area, created by combining the living and dining rooms, 
The entire front and dining side of this area features view 
windows, with a maximum of daylight. A free-standing 
fireplace (the acorn type) can be installed in the living

the exposed joists to the roof. For quick lunches and 
snacks, there is an “eating bar,” which allows convenient 
service to the dining room as well. 

Designed for easy meal preparation, the compact kitchen 
has the range and oven enclosed at the end of one counter, 
and the fridge at the other end of the counter, close to the 
twin sink, for convenient food preparation, The back door 
allows convenient access for all household supplies. 

The smaller of the two bedrooms is perfect for weekend 
guests, as it has it’s own view window, closet space and 
privacy. 

On the second floor the thaster bedroom has a large 
closet and a view window to the rear. A bonus feature is 
the sleeping loft for those extra guests that bring their 


Sleeping bags. In one corner is a planter where trailing 
plants will hang directly over the eating bar and benefit 
from the maximum daylight. Double doors from the loft 
open to the balcony at the front, which completes the 
design of this Alpine cottage.

These things happen too often. To contractors, 
backhoe operators, even to backyard power posthole

Maybe it's because Alberta is such a busy place. In the 
past year over 465 miles of underground gas mains

This program is for children 
aged 6 - 12 years and will

ain setting up an exciting 
program including arts, cr- 


afts, dance, drama, music, _ 


sports, games, field trips and 
special events all leading to a 
fun-filled summer for the 
children. There is no fee the 
children, There is no fee for 
the playground program. 

Six daycamp sessions will 
be offered throughout the 
summer. This year, so that 
more children can be acc- 
ommodated, there will be 
two camps running simul- 
taneously: one for seven to 
nine year olds and one for 10 
- 12 year olds, both being 
held out at River Lot 56 on 
the Sturgeon River. A maxi- 
mum of 20 children will be 
registered for each camp 
each session. 

Day camps offer a week 
long outdoor experience of 
nature study, crafts, cook- 
outs and campfire fun. 
Thursdays (weather permitt- 
ing) will be an overnight 
campout and the week closes 
on Friday mornings. 

So that as many children 
as possible can be acc- 
ommodated, registrations 
will be initially restricted to 
one camp session per child.

work. The family is charged a 
fee based on the ability to 
pay. The current fee scale is 
based on an hourly rate 
which is one-fifth of one 
percent of net monthly 
income. It ranges from 30 
cents to a maximum of $4 per

Western Canadian Stock Car 
Driving Championships 


While the Indy 500 was 
running on the tube, Cobra 
Raceway held its first of five 
Western Canadian Stock Car 
Driving Championships. 

Winning the 50 lap feature 
race was a Calgarian, Cedrik 
Zinek. 

While 24 laps were run 
under the yellow caution flag 
the field of 19 cars dwindled 
down to 14 before the 
half-way point. 


Attendance for the Sunday 
afternoon event was a dismal 
400, which could be attribu- 
ted to the race being re- 
scheduled from Saturday 
night. 

Finishing second and third 
in the feature event res- 
pectively were Bryan Kutryk 
of Edmonton and Harold 
Brown of Calgary. 

In the trophy dashes 
Harold Brown took the fast 
stock with Don McCrory

Field hockey team returns victorious 


The St. Albert field hockey 
team returned last week from 
an exciting long weekend 
participating in the B.C.

six games. They beat Bea- 
vers (Vancouver) 3-0, Kel- 
owna, 4-2, Kamloops 2-1, 
Victoria Toms 3-1, Maple 
Ridge (Vancouver) 2-1,°and 
lost to Burnaby in the last 30 
seconds 2-3 with a penalty 
flick. 

This is the team’s first 
season in‘the Edmonton 
senior league and they have 
shown fine spirit and team 
work in winning two games, 
tying one and losing two 
against more experienced 
teams with representative 
players. 

The team members are D. 
Callafas, L. Ewing, J. Berg, 
S. Fleming, M. Olson, J.

Pitching highlights recent Builders’ games 


LBH Builders were both 
victims and victors in recent 
Sturgeon Men's Fastball 
League action, largely due to 
some outstanding pitching 
performances. 

After three opening vic- 
tories the Builders’ bubble 
burst when they came up 
against a tough Calahoo 
Chief squad who defeated 
Builders 7-2. Artie Stevenson 


_ ace pitcher of the Chiefs, was 


in total control of the game as 
he struck out six and allowed 
only two hits, while south- 
paw Lenny Grew suffered the 
loss. 

The game was actually 


courts. 


I PLEASE PRINT 


much closer than it sounds, 
as Chiefs held a close 3-2 
lead until the bottom of the 
sixth, when two errors by the 
Builders opened the door for 
four unanswered runs. 

The following Monday it 
was the Dick Bird show, as 
Bird led the St. Albert A’s to 
a close 3-1 victory over the 
Builders. Bird's pitching 
performance allowed six hits 
but at no time except for the 
bottom of the seventh inning 
was he in serious trouble. 
Five strikeouts and several 
routine fly balls ended other 
innings in which Builders 
had runners on base.

Equally fine pitching per- 
formances were credited to 
Builders’ starter Gene Lyt- 
win and reliever Rich Mer- 
cier. Both combined to allow 
only two hits, but again two 
errors led to the Builders’ 
defeat. 

Wally Cooper stroked two 
of the Builders’ hits, but 
again the inability of Buil- 
ders to bring the runners 
around led to their second 
straight loss. 

On Sunday, Builders re- 
bounded by defeating Ono- 
way Royals 7-2 in a rain-out 
game make-up. Again pitch- 
ing was the order of the day 


Single 


Oo 


30 - ST. ALBERT & STURGEON GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY, MAY 31, 1978 


as Gene Lytwyn allowed only 
two hits while striking out 10 
enroute to the victory. The 
first inning was all that was 
needed for Builders as they 
scored three runs to cinch the 
victory. 

Lytwyn was never in 
serious trouble throughout 
the game as he received 
strong fielding support from 
both infield and outfield to 


Figure 


help preserve the victory. 

Builders were rained out in 
Monday night's game with 
Stony Plain Kings but return 
to action tonight at 7:30 when 
they host the St. Albert 
Juniors at Alpine Park. 

Once again it will be ex-

Lacrosse 
clubs 


show 
improve- 
ment 


Although the scores con- 
tinue to be lopsided in favour 
of strong Edmonton oppo- 
sition, St. Albert peewee and 
bantam lacrosse clubs are 
gradually gaining ground, as 
players completely new to 
the game on both clubs gain 
experience and know-how. 

After a week layoff, both 
teams hosted games at the 
Arena this Monday. The 
peewees played well but 
succumbed to strong offen- 
sive pressure by Aspen 
Gardens in a 12-2 loss. 
Michael Olendy’s netmind- 
ing actually kept the score 
down, as he repeatedly 
stopped visitors’ rushes. 
Scoring for St. Albert were 
Geordy McKenzie and Grah- 
am Thompson. 

The bantam club, sporting 
their new Toros sweaters for 
the first time this season, 
came out determined to do 
better than their devastating 
24-1 loss in the season 
opener against Southeast 
Edmonton. Showing sub- 
stantial improvement in de- 
fensive play, and supported 
by a sensational goaltending 
job by Chris Lane, they came 
out of the first period down 
by 3-1, with Mike Kennedy 
scoring on a nice corner shot. 

Letting up slightly in the 
last two periods, and not 
getting an offensive game 
underway, resulted in a final 
11-1 score for the powerful 
Southeast Edmonton team.

This map shows the course of the first world championship river race, the Great

World championship 
river race set 


By Darcy Henton 

The first world champ- 
ionship river boat race will 
run through Drayton Valley 
this summer. 

The Klondike 300, one of 
two races in the Great 
Canadian Marathon, will run 
down the North Saskatche- 
wan River past Drayton 
Valley July 29. 

More than 100 boats are 
expected to compete in the 
river race which willbegin at 
Nordegg July 28 and con- 
clude in Edmonton July 30. 

The Klondike 300 first ran 
last year as a grudge match 
following the Great Canadian 
Smoky River Race. 

Only eight boats complet- 
ed the run down the river as 
a result of a fatal accident 
which killed one member of 
an Edmonton boating crew 
and nullified the first leg of 
the race. 

This year's race, which is 
being advertised on an inter- 
national scale, is expected to 
draw racers from Mexico, 
New Zealand, Venezuela, 
Argentina, Spain, Germany 

and England. i 

Race captain Larry (Soapy) 
Service said Drayton Valley 
residents will be treated to a 
riverboat slalom when the 
boats arrive at the end of the 
Drayton Valley leg of the 
race. 

‘We will be having a five 
buoy slalom out on the river. 
It will be quite spectacular,” 
he explained. 

More than $40,000 in prize 
money will be up for grabs in 


the two races which make up 
the world championship run. 

Winners will be declared 
for the fastest time on the 
Smoky River White water 
section and the Klondike 300 
North Saskatchewan Braids 
and channels section. 

The river boater with the 
fastest time down the 900 
kms. of combined rivers will 
be declared 1978 world 
champion river racer, 

The race has been sanc- 
tioned for the world champ- 
ionship by the Union Inter- 
national Nautique Associa- 
tion in Belgium. 

**Nothing like this has ever 
been done before. We're 
going on the map all over the 
world,’’ race captain Service 
said. 

Only 50 percent of the 
boats that make the Smoky 
River run are expected to be 
in shape to run the Klondike 
300 due to the high white 
water stretch casualty race. 

Boats can, however, quali- 
fy to run only in the Klondike 
300 section.

No other tire company has ever 
offered so much. But then there’s 
never been a tire like the Firestone 
721. The New Generation Steel 
Belted Radial. 


The Very Different Radial 


Our new steel cord is the very 
strong difference. 

To make each cord, we wrap 7 
brass-plated steel filaments 
around 2 and then bind them 
together with 1 more. 

7+ 2+ 1 adds up to"721.” 
And this adds up to ten steel 
filaments per cord. 


That's twice as many as in our 
previous steel belted radial tire. 
These stronger belts add up to 
increased wearability and resis- 
tance to punctures. And the low 
rolling resistance means 
increased gas mileage. 


Oras 


Here’s how it works 


When you purchase a set of 72] radials 
and pay for balancing all four wheels and 
a front end alignment, you'll receive a per- 
sonalized “No-Charge” service card. Right 
from the start we want you to get the most 
out of these great tires. 

This "No-Charge” card makes you eligible 
for "No-Charge” service for as long as the 
tires are on your car. This card is valid at 
any Firestone Store or participating dealer 
in Canada, displaying the “No-Charge” 
card decal on their place of business. With 
this card, you are eligible for the following 
“No-Charge” services. 


UR BEST 
STEEL BELTED RADIAL 


comes with 


; tto-charge 


What's more, we've developed a 
new and better way to bond 
rubber to steel for better insulation 
against moisture. 


Proven over 5 Million 
Miles 

721 is the most proven tire that 
Firestone has ever introduced. 
We punished it on test tracks, 
highways, country roads and city 
streets. In the heat and the rain. 
We drove it through tight turns 
and at speeds you'll never drive. 
The full depth tread design 
ensures good wet weather traction 
for the life of the tire.

Wheel balance every 5,000 miles if re-

way to ensure even wear on your tires. At

concern, the guidelines ex- 
plain implications of the 
Clean Water Act to coal mine 
operators. 

Water handling is essen-

processing, for hydraulic 
mining, and for miscell- 
aneous uses, such as dust 
control and firefighting. In 
by precipitation, ground wa- 
ter seepage and surface 
run-off. The water could 
become polluted and may 
require treatment before it is 
discharged. 

The guidelines apply to 
new mines and coal pro-

expansions to existing oper- 
ations. Compliance of older 
mines is determined on an 
individual basis.

ST. ALBERT & STURGEON GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY, MAY 31, 1978 - 


as told by Uncle Rick 

You could sum up this 
week's action in the SAMBA 
baseball circles as rather ‘‘in 
and out'’ -- that is, most 
players were inside (on 
account of wet diamonds) 
instead of being outside. 
Another profound statement 
-» All kidding aside, damp 
diamonds played havoc am- 
ong all teams in ALL 
divisions. There was some 
activity and the results are as 


SAMBA - 
Bat Time Stories 


follows. 
MOSQUITO DIVISION 


Only one round of games 
was on schedule in the A 
division among Mosquito 
teams the games of 
Wednesday, May 24. Mel- 
ton's Mighty Mites mashed 
the Buxton Eager Beavers 
23-3. At the same time the 
Safeway Seals splashed the 
Lacombe Park Red Roosters 


Up and Awa 


off their perch 30-10 as Joel 
Borle spun another victory 
for Coach Bruce McGlash- 
am's top-notch Seals. 

All B division contests 
were washed down the mos- 
quito-land gutters on Thurs- 
day. The rain cancelled fray 
featuring Melton's Mighty- 
Mites and Safeway's Seals is 
expected to be made up 
Saturday morning at 9 
o'clock on diamond two. 

The Gazette Cards wrapp- 
ed up the first half of their 
season Monday, May 23 at 
the expense of the Sturgeon 
Meat Marketeers 31-22. Wi- 
nning pitcher was Danny 
Zrubak of the Cardinals. 

BEAVER DIVISION 


Coach Ron Kinney's ball 


squad, Neil's Trailer Kings 
rolled over a couple of 
formidable opponents this 
past week during the good 
weather breaks. The spunky 
Sturgeon Valley Sod Busters 
were given a 31-13 spading 
on Tuesday evening and in a 
make-up encounter played 
Saturday morning, Coach Vic 
Hogan's Sportshop Cubs 
were caged 16-14 by the 
same Kings. Dean Williams 
homered in the Tuesday tilt 
and hurled the win Saturday. 

As expected, Springer's 
Angels league leaders boar- 
ded up the Nu West Homers 
10 to 4 with new pitcher 
Gilles Gardner on the mound 
for the winners. By the way, 
Nu West has a new headman 
... Bill Derieu. Welcome to

BANTAM DIVISION 


Our question of last week 
concerning the Bermont Br- 
onkos was almost, but not 
quite, answered by Coach 
Bob Lewis and his Big M 
Shish-ka-bobers. The rain 
ceased long enough last 
Wednesday to allow a pit- 
cher's duel to develop 
between fast baller Terry 
Yost of Big M and Blain 
Malanchen of the Bronks. 

The rip-roaring Bronks 
won 5-4 but not before Yost 
had struck out 12 Bermonts 

. Malanchen fanned 11 Big 
M's and added two home 
runs to aid his cause. A 
super-catch by second base- 
man Rob Boddez ended a 
sure-fire rally by the Burger- 
men in their half of the 
seventh. 

Skip Wheatley'’s Blasters 
from the Pennington powder 
room blew the Nu West 
Bombers off Lorne Akins 
diamond #23 in another 
wonderful Wednesday win 
16-6 as the second place 
Neil's Trailer Kings were 
upset by the veteran Link 
Hardware Blue Jays 14-12, 
The local Blue Jays are doing 
much better than their coun- 
terparts in Toronto. Tom 
Shipanoff smashed a round 
tripper for Link. Russ Cock- 
will received credit for the 
upset triumph. 


NORWEST MIDGET 
LEAGUE DIVISION 


Although the Barrhead 
County Kings seem to have 
no trouble playing their 
games, the rest of the midget 
nines comprising the Nor- 
west Midget Division have 
been hard-pressed staying 
up with the league schedule, 
The outlook is both good and 
bad, by the way, for the 
future of the league. As it 
now stands, this week ... 
perhaps tonight, a decision 
will be made regarding 
whether to continue the 
schedule as it now stands or 
drop two teams and revise 
the league schedule to in- 
clude only four teams. 

Barrhead’s County Kings 
continued to rule the top spot 
with a double win during the 
week ... both coming from 
our local St. Albert midgets. 
The Kings entertained the 
first year Cardinals at Barr- 
head Tuesday outscoring the 
Rechlo-Balog coached Cards 
14-5, 

Barry Tachuk hit a triple, 
double, and single to become 
the game's top batter in his 
three trips to the plate. 
Pitching duties were shared 
by Doug Rechlo and Larry 
Schuchard of the St. Albert 
squad allowing a total of 10 
Barrhead hits. 

Bob Wimmer of Barr- 
head's mound corp went all 
the way allowing 10 well-sp- 
aced St. Albert bingles. 

In a Sunday double-header 
for the St. Albert Saints, 
Barrhead took their second 
tiff of the week from a St, 
Albert team, 8-1 as coaches 
Galbraith and Tooth sent a 
trio of chuckers to the hill at 
Mission Park in an effort to 
stem the tide. The Saints 
won in a squeaker 4-3 
Sunday against the Cards. 

FROM THE BENCH ... 


By now, we're sure you've 


heard that our lovely ladies 
of the SAMBA auxiliary are 
sponsoring a swinging base- 
ball dance - their second 
annual - on Friday, June 9. 

According to dance chair- 
lady Irene Cherkas every- 
thing is in readiness for 
everyone to have a real 
“*ball’’ ... as Irene puts it **... 
there'll be refreshments, 
prizes, and surprises all 
evening at the Community 
League Hall ... dancing from 
tine to one to the music of 
Steve Anthony. 

If you wish more in- 
formation you can give Irene 
a jingle at 459-6963 or wait 
for the “phoning mothers" 
to call. You can also consult 
that super-fine newsletter 
just released by Carol Baird, 
auxiliary president, for a 
whole bevy of phone num- 
bers. One thing for certain, 
tickets WILL NOT be avail- 
able at the door. Another 
thing for certain, a full house 
sell out is planned so try to 
get those ducats early ... 

For those of you who 
collect information about 
playoffs and tournaments ... 
Bert LaBuick has his playoff 
set-up very well explained in 
his mosquito division games 
list... we'll cover that at 
another time ... it's a good 
one, by the way ... 

Beaver division head Pat 
Lockert promises that all six 
house league teams will 
contend in a playoff with 
“some kind’ of recognition 
going to the first place 
finishers during the regular 
season. At this point in time, 
Pat is a little hesitant to 
release particulars as his 
interesting plans are very 
much dependent on the 
weatherman and his predic- 
tions... 

Boss of the bantam divi- 
sion, Jim Gleason had plans 
for a playoff involving the 
TOP THREE teams which 
will get off the ground 
sometime after June 15... 
again, depending on the 
“condition of the atmos- 
phere” at the time. 

In the on-again off-again 
midget baseball world, both 
St. Albert teams may be (and 
maybe not) contending in a 
midget tournament this wee- 
kend at Alexis ... stay tuned 
for that one .., also a midget 
tournament in Edmonton 
Sunday of a possible Buck- 
aroo tournament for midget 
baseballers on Rodeo Week- 
end in St, Albert ... this is 
more ON than OFF ... but 
still in a talking stage. 

Should city facilities shed 
the water this weekend 
there's some talk going on 
tonight about entering the 
famous Rosslyn baseball 
tourney at President Lorne 
Ross’ house ... 

In the words of Henry W. 
Longfellow (or was it Lorne 
Ross) ‘Rain, Rain, go away 
... the SAMBA house league 
wants to PLAY" ... eh.

delayed 


Continued From Page 34 
deadline of May 1 is being 
extended because the divi- 
sion has elected not to hold 
early workout camps for 
prospective players. 

The division is financing 
and operating two represen- 
tative teams in peewee, 
bantam, midget and juvenile 
leagues. 

Thus far applications from 
coaches includes both new- 
comers to the community and 
from coaches of past years 
but Mr. McConachie stresses 
‘last year’s coaches are not 
being given automatic pre- 
ference."’ 

He says: ‘‘All candidates 
will be reviewed by a 
selection committee and the 
best candidate will get the 
position.”’ 

Interested applicants are 
asked to submit a complete 
resume of qualifications to 
Mr. McConachie at 11 Falcon 
Crescent, St. Albert by July 
1, including a statement as to 
which team he or she would 
be willing to coach. 

The four representative 
‘‘B’’ teams will play in a 
newly formed Sturgeon-Pe- 
mbina Hockey League with 
teams from Barrhead, West- 
lock, Morinville and Sher- 
wood Park as well as some 
northern Alberta teams in- 
cluding Athabasca. 

The four ‘‘A’’ teams will 
continue playing in the same 
league as they did last year. 

The representative divi- 
sion also announced this 
week their application to 
enter the Capital Junior Ho- 
ckey League has been re- 
jected. 

The CJHL accepted Mor- 
inville and not St. Albert 
because Morinville originally 
applied for entrance one year 
ago. St. Albert has been 
advised to again apply for the 
1979-80 season in January, 
but no decision has been 
made in that regard,

The Royal Canadian 
Mounted Police, ‘‘K’’ Divi- 
sion in an effort to improve 
boating safety has prepared 
a series of articles on laws 
and regulations dealing with 
small boats, powered and 
non-powered. 

Only 45 percent of Alberta 
boaters carry the proper 
equipment, and the tragedy 
is that 48 percent of all 
Alberta drownings inves- 
tigated by the RCMP during 
1977 involved small vessels. 

This week's article deals 
with licensing and life jac- 
kets. 

The RCMP Canada Ship- 
ping Act section asks ‘‘Have 
you renewed your boating 
license for 1978?’ A yearly 
renewal of boat license is not 
required: However, if you 
were not sure, then perhaps

it might be best to read on. 
Every vessel over 10 h.p. 
must be licensed. This app- 
lies anywhere in Cahada, 
The application forms are 
available from your nearest 
customs office and are issued 
free of cost. The customs 
office will designate a num- 
ber that will never change 
during the lifetime of your 
boat. Put this number on 
both sides of the bow (front), 
and make certain that they 
are at least three inches 
high, and are of such a color 
that they can readily be seen. 
When you sell the boat, 
complete the transfer slip on 
the back of the registration 
and forward to the customs 
office. If you have not done 
So, or you do not have the 
registration form for your 
boat for whatever reason, 
then contact the customs 
office and have this reme- 
died. You may voluntarily 
license any vessel you wish 
and we recommend that this 
be done. There is no easier 
way to trace a found boat that 
has drifted away or to locate 
a vessel that is stolen. If you 
have any questions on boat- 
ing, please contact your local 
RCMP detachment. 

Want an easy way to 
remember which side is port 
or starboard? Left has four 
letters and so does port. 
Fortunately the left side of a 
boat is the port side. 


So you just spent $50 on a 
new life jacket. At that nrice 
it had better be good. Right? 
But ... is it legal? Every 
boater must have an approy- 
ed life jacket, personal flo- 
tation device or life saving 
cushion for each person on 
board. Approved means ap- 
proved by the Department of 
Ministry of Transport. If the 
jacket is approved it will so 
state somewhere on the life 
jacket. United States Coast 
Guard (U.S.C.G.). Approved 
life jackets are not legal in 
Canada. 


TODAY’S BOATING TIP 


After a long drive to the 
lake, the hubs on your boat 
trailer will heat up. Be sure 
to let them cool before 
entering the lake, otherwise 
they will contract when they 
hit the colder water and allow 
water to enter the hubs.

ade his way to the helicopter. 


Premier Peter Lougheed 
kicked off his 1978 Cabinet 
tour, by literally ‘‘dropping 
in’’ on the community of 
Redwater early Monday 
morning. The Premier seem- 
ed quite pleased that a 
special landing pad had been 
arranged on the neatly 
trimmed fairway of the golf 
course, just outside the west 
entrance of the Multi-plex. 
Once the helicopter had lan- 
ded, Mr. Lougheed was 
greeted by a small cont- 


ingent of residents and a 
cadet honour guard made up 
of Marion Graca, Doug 
Russell, Jim McColeman, 
David Melville, Victoria Gra- 
ca and Lorna Grimsen, all 
members of the Sturgeon 
#524 Squadron. 

Inside the Multi-plex, the 
volunteer group was busily 
preparing breakfast for the 
Premier, the honored guests 
and about 200 interested 
residents. The volunteer 
group was headed by the 


Spotlight on Sturgeon 


Morinville needs 
to apply the brakes 


Although Morinville Mayor Art Stapleton has 
expressed support of the 125 acre Denwell 
Developments light industrial park about one 
mile south of the town, there seems a general 
tone of anxiety among the council over 
industrial developments sprouting up around 
Morinville. 


It got to the point at a council meeting in 
Morinville this week where councillor Walter 
Enright said: “The next thing we know, we will 
be surrounded by light industry.” 


Apart from the 125 acre industrial park on the 
make near Morinville, there is also talk of 
another 60 acre park just west of the Denwell 
Development and it is this that seems to have 
upset Mayor Stapleton and the council. 


yAn intriguing situation is further posed by the 
fact that a 25 acre light industrial park has been 
approved by the MD of Sturgeon on Morinville's 
north-west boundaries, yet it has been turned 
down by the Edmonton Regional Planning 
Commission and Morinville Council! 


What, with the Champlain Heights subdivision in 
full swing just down from the Highway Two 
bypass, it seems that someone somewhere is 
going to have to call a slow-down on 
development in Morinville, whatever the ultimate 
revenue benefits that might escape the town as 
a result, 


As Mr. Enright continued: “We are sitting here 
with a situation to the west of us which is not 
healthy for the community...do we annex within 
a two mile radius?” 


Evidently there is going to have to be a meeting 
lof minds over the Morinville growth situation; to 
this end, the council is trying to set up a 
meeting with the MD of Sturgeon, possibly for

Following the substantial 
portions of pancakes and

wich welcomed Premier Lou- 
gheed and MLA Topolnisky 
to ‘*Redwater, the finest oil 
town in the World."’ After a 
brief introductory speech, 
Mr. Konasewich turned the 
floor over to MLA Top- 
olnisky. 

Mr. Topolnisky thanked 
the Brownies, the Cadets and 
the volunteer group for their 
fine reception and remarked

Morinville 
will try 
meetings 
cut-back 


There seems to be some 
concern among Morinville 
municipal officials that there 
are too many meetings and 
that they go on too long. 

That was what the agenda 
of this week's council meet- 
ing indicated with ‘‘meetings 
- too many - too long - 
Councillor Quinn.” 

But the item never came 
up at the council meeting 
even though it was on the 
agenda. 

It was not a case of 
chickening out, just because 
Mayor Art Stapleton was 
absent along with Councillor 
Harvey Atkinson. 

Deputy Mayor Ross Quinn 
told the Gazette Monday that 
the reason why the item was 
not discussed was (precisely) 
because the mayor and 
Councillor Atkinson were not 
present. 

Deputy Mayor Quinn said 
the problem would be dis- 
cussed when all the council 
was together. 

He also pointed out that 
the main concern was not the 
length and quantity of re- 
gular meetings, but those in 
between, which are known to 
municipal politicians as com- 
mittee meetings. 


Tuesday, May 23 saw #524 
squadron, with parents and 
friends, gathered at the 
Gibbons school gym for the 
final inspection. The re- 
viewing officer was Major 
Paul Grondin. 

Included in the reviewing 
party were Captain K, 
Farrar, Captain S. Geiger, 
Mr. J. Yuill, director of 


administration for the Pro- 
vincial League, Mr. E. Smith 
of the Provincial League, our

MD plays it cool with 
explosive development 


Atits regular development 
meeting this week the MD of 
Sturgeon played it cool with 
an application from Edmon- 
ton Explosives Limited to set 
up three powder magazines 
about two miles southeast of 
the Evergreen Mobile Home 
Park. 

Deputy Reeve of the MD 
Lawrence Kluthe remarked 
that the proposed magazines 
were fairly ‘‘close to the 
river,’’ (the North Saskat- 
chewan) and wanted to make 
sure there were some pro- 
visions for security. 

One of the criteria for 
placement of the powder 
magazines is that they 
should be at least half a mile 
away from any residence. 

MD Development Officer 
Gary Brownlee told the MD 
he didn’t know what kind of 
security had been proposed 


for the development when 
asked that question from Mr. 
Kluthe. 

The site for the devel- 
opment is about five acres, 
near Apex Gravel. 

It was generally agreed 
that the MD should speak 
with representatives of the 


Tough for 


explosive storage units be- 
fore they were constructed. 

Security was a key issue 
with Mr. Kluthe, who, re- 
ferring to terrorism, said: 
“The type of situation we 
have in this world, will come 
this way five or six years 
later.’*

ago, and tonight, he told 
cadets, he finds the squadron 
much improved. As co-or- 
dinator of the Hawaiian 
Draw, he complimented the 
squadron for being sixth 
highest in the province in 
ticket Sales per cadet. 

Mr. Jack Yuill of the 
Provincial League brought 
regrets from Colby McDon- 
ald, our league represen- 
tative, who was unable to 
attend, due to illness. He 
mentioned that members of 
the Provincial League who 
were in attendance could 
have their own committee 
meeting, as he introduced 
Mr. Art Skinner, co-ordin- 
ator for Camp Wright, Ernie 
Smith, Hawaiian Draw, and 
Mr. Stan Harries, immediate 
past president of the Pro- 
vincial League. Mr. Yuill 
complimented the squadron 


New, flexible Mataven dev- 
astates wild oats. If sprayed ac- 
curately anywhere from the 3- 
leaf to shot blade stage, it 
should kill 90% of all wild oats 
outright, Mataven leaves the 
rest shrivelled, unable to com- 
pete with your crop—unable to 
produce seed that will plague 
you next year 


Mataven has all of the ad- 
vantages of its popular older 
brother, Endaven*. 


ENDAVEN® :: 
has i 
special 
advantages 


*Use Endaven on rape 
when the wild oats are 
anywhere from the 4-leaf 
to 6-leaf stage. 

*Endaven can be mixed 
with Carbyne if you want 
to spray wheat between 
the 2-leaf and 3-leaf 
Stage. 

* Many farmers have beén 
getting excellent results 
with Endaven__ killing 
wild oats in wheat and 
rape for years, It’s a 
proven friend. 


It is effective when the wild 
oats are most active, so you use 
it only “when you see the 
whites of their eyes.” Then 
you know whether you really 
have a wild oat problem and 
you don’t spend money on 
“maybe” conditions. Also, you 
don’t spend money incorporat- 
ing Mataven—just spray it on. 


You don’t have to be too 
fussy about which day to spray 
Mataven: you usually have 
most of the month of June as 
the wild oats develop all the 
way from their 3-leaf to shot 
blade stages. 


Mataven flexibility includes 
freedom from weather worries, 
Even if rain or shine comes 
Mataven works. 


Mataven has been tested § 
years on every kind of wheat 
(including spring, durum and 
winter wheats), and it works 
on all, except Selkirk. The av- 
erage yield increase has been 
over 40%! If you want 40% 
more wheat, with an easily-ap- 
plied chemical destroying wild 
oats, get Mataven at UGG, 
Every pail treats 10 acres 


At. UGG, supplies of 
Matuven are good, and the 
price is always fair.

and stated that this was the 
first squadron he’s seen who 
were all clad in the new 
green uniform. 

Captain Ken Farrar con- 
gratulated the squadron on 
the improvement evident 
over the past year, and urged 
them to keep up the good 
work and improvement for 
next year as well. 


SCHOLARSHIPS 
ANNOUNCED 


Lt. E. Mortimer, emcee, 
then announced the names of 
several cadets who had won 
scholarships this year. They 
included Fit. Sgt. Carolyne 
Hutchings, exchange scho- 
larship to the United States; 
Sgt. Trent McHardy, senior 
leaders scholarship; Sgt. M. 
Graca, technical training 
scholarship; Cpl. J. Me- 
Coleman, gliding scholar- 
ship. 

Two promotions were also 
announced, Kevin Noga and 
Alan Saunders from the rank 
of Acting Corporal to Cor- 
poral. 


Aaaaa .... 


Mrs. Evelyn Hutchings, 
chairman of the sponsoring 
body, was then introduced. 
She congratulated the squ- 
adron on their good appear- 
ance and thanked the band 
for coming and adding se 
much to the occasion. She 
asked if they might play 
‘Happy Birthday” as a large 
cake, complete with candles, 
was brought in by Mrs. D. 
Noga, to the complete sur- 
prise of Ed Mortimer, who 
with cadets LAC Darlene 
Lange, LAC Darren Sanford, 
and Cpl. K. Noga, all 
celebrated birthdays in May. 
These four were called up to 
blow out the candles and 
when this rather unorthodox 
proceeding was completed, 
inspection was over, and the 
squadron was dismissed with 
proper ceremony. Following 
this, the audience gathered 
outside where two rockets 
were launched by Sgt. Trent 
McHardy and Cpl. Jim Mc- 
Coleman. 

Guests and cadets then 
re-assembled inside for the 
unveiling of the squadron 
emblem by Major Grondin,

Capt. Geiger and Capt.

composite of cadet sugg- 
estions, designed by Lt. E. 
Mortimer and painted by 
Brian McCrindle. The centre 
oval shows an osprey (or fish 
eagle) flying with a Sturgeon 
in its claws, a most appro- 
priate emblem for the Stur- 
geon Air Cadets. The oval is 
framed by maple leaves and 
the motto ‘Without fear and 
without reproach’’ appears 
underneath. This motto was 
submitted by Sgt. D. Russell. 

After the ceremonies were 
over, guests were invited to 
partake of refreshments and 
to view the displays set up in 
the hallways. In one area 
slides were shown of the 
various squadron activities 
and classes throughout the 
past year. Other displays 
included coin collections, 
rockets, models, aircraft 
pictures, first-aid, scuba 


equipment, shoulder flashes, 
parachute and pack. 

Among the special guests 
were Mayor R. Austen of 
Gibbons, Mr. H. Klufus, 
principal at Redwater, Mr. 
G. Schick, principal at 
Gibbons, Sgt. M. Ingle of the 
Airborne, and Mr. and Mrs. 
Bob Russell of the Lucky 
Dollar, Gibbons who have 
given so generously to all the 
functions of the squadron. 

Our thanks go to all who 
helped make this day one to 
be long remembered by our 
cadets. 

On Saturday, June 3, WO2 
Fred Hutchings will attend a 
banquet at Griesbach, at 
which time he will receive an 
award for being the top 
Alberta cadet in the Senior 
Leaders Course 1977. Fred

Whether you call it green fox tail, wild mil- 
let, or pigeongrass, Stampede kills it on con- 
tact. Spray Stampede on wheat or barley 
when the majority of the green foxtail is in 
the 3-leaf stage. This will often be 10 to 17 
days after crop emergence when the grain is 
in the 3 to 4-leaf stage. If a good flush of 
green foxtail emerges with the crop, chances 
are yields will suffer from 5 to 10 bushels 
per acre. 

Stampede also controls wild buckwheat, 
lady’s thumb, redroot pigweed, tartary buck- 
wheat, lamb’s quarters, shepherd’s purse, 
stinkweed (rosette 
stage) and other 
broadleaf weeds, 

All this for less 
than $5 an acre, At 
UGG, supplies are 
good and prices are 
always fair.

The drinkers of bygone years 


There was no plumbing or 
running water at Gibbons 
then either. No electricity 
except for a small motorized 
‘generator’ called a ‘‘Delco 
light plant,’* out in a back 
shed. 

Wooden sidewalks Were 
the only type to be had at 
the time. A wooden sidewalk 
connected the “‘beer parl 
our’’ of the old frame 
Gibbons Hotel, on the east 
side, to the ‘‘out house,’’ or 
backhouse, all neatly fenced 
with a great, high board 
fence, protecting it from the 
“main street,’’ view, 

On hot days you could hear 
the riding-boots, complete 
with spurs of our local 
drinkers, running back and 
forth behind this high fence, 
as you went to the store or 
something. 

One day as | was passing, I 
heard one old guy yeil -- 
“Where the hell is the 
paper?’’ To that call came 
this reply -- ‘‘Ain't there any 
pages left in that cata- 
logue?’' The answer \;- 
“Nope, guess everything's 
been ordered from it!'’ And I 
damned well ain't going to 
use those slippery pages!" 
*‘Well,’’ said Mrs. Frazer, 
““T'll fling you an old one. | 
already tore out all the 
colored pages!"’ 

Out back of the community 
hall stood two sturdy ‘‘back 
houses,"’ kept very sanitary 
with coal-oil down them, 
which kept them free of 
insects too. 

But, menfolks with a bottle 
of liquor would crowd into 
the one place, (maybe about 
eight men) all crowded in for 
a ‘‘snort.”’ 

We thought their habit 
was bad. | was very young 
then and when I found their 
hidden bottle one night, | 
dumped out the contents and 
refilled it with cider vinegar 
and put it back. 

Of course feeling pretty 
high already the main town 
“‘drunks,’’ went out for ano- 
ther “‘snort."' In the dark- 
ness, they apparently just 
““tipped-er-up.'’ Because 
suddenly we heard some 
great ‘‘gasps for breath,"’ 
followed by cussing and 
choking, which was hair 
raising, to say the least. 

No wonder they sobered 
up so quickly, and we noticed 
their quiet behavior as they 
danced, I wonder even today 
if their ladies thought per- 
haps they had been eating 
pickles? 

Of course drinking and 
driving wasn't a problem 
those times. The horses 
knew the way home anyhow.

beth Turnbull, Jean Payne, 
Elsie Hook, Agnes Evan- 
chuk, Eileen Perrault, Clara 
Johnson, Theresa Boog, and 
Elsie Williams as well as 


Mrs. Clara Loyer from 
Calahoo. 

With many groups enter- 
ing handicraft and not 


entirely satisfied with the 
judging, it was appropriate 
that our guest was Pat 
Doerksen, district home ec- 
onomist for the Department 
of Agriculture, Morinville 
office. Pat spoke to us and 
showed us standards used in 
the judging of handicrafts. 

Demonstrating with nine 
items, Pat gave her com- 
ments on sewn, crocheted 
and knitted articles. 

The standards fall into 
three categories, the first of 
which is Function. The func- 
tion will strongly influence 
the design and craftsman- 
ship of that article. 

The second standard re- 
lates to the Design. The 
structural shape and texture 
of the article, in conjunction 
with any applied decoration, 
must relate to the function of 
that article. 

The final consideration is 
Craftsmanship. This is con- 
cerned with the technical 
ability and skills exhibited, 
while using materials know- 
ledgeably and realizing their 
potential. 


NO JUDGES VOLUNTEER! 


Along with slides, Pat 
showed the methods used 
and problems encountered 
by judges. She then divided 
us into groups and we were 
given the opportunity to 
show our prowess in judging. 
Pat got a negative response 
when she offered to train 
anyone wishing to become a 
judge. 

Pat explained the Danish 
System of Judging which is 
much preferred since several 
firsts, seconds and thirds 
may be awarded in each 
class. 

If anyone wishes infor- 
mation, they may phone Pat 
Doerksen at 939-4391. 

Mrs. G. Berry thanked this 
busy lady, and our President 
Mrs. F, Wheatley, presented 
her with a houseplant. 

In a discussion of other 
business, it was decided to 
hold the annual Horticultural 
Show on Wednesday, August 
16, in the Calahoo Church 
basement. 

We also decided to put 
some money into the Wish- 
ing Well, made by Mrs. V. 
Albrecht, to be taken to thi

Calahoo Goldenagers meet 


By Liz McLeod 
When that second Wed- 
nesday of the month comes 
around, there is excitement 
for the Senior Citizens of 
Calahoo and district, as this 
is the day they meet for their 
regular meetings. The most 
recent one was held on May 
10, with more than 30 
attending. 
Card games of bridge, 
cribbage and whist pre- 
dominated, along with fr- 


iendly visiting throughout 
the afternoon, 

After cards and bingo were 
played, the lunch hour en- 
sued and Werner Christen 
was honored for his birthday 
May S. 

Another meeting was held 
May 24, with just 22 neigh- 
bors and friends gathered, as 
many were still busy in their 
gardens. A pleasant day was 
had by everyone. 

There were no birthdays to 


honor this day, but a happy 
time was had by all, 

The Calahoo Goldenage 
Club sends their best wishes 
for a speedy return to good 
health out to fellow member, 
Mr. Frank Gawron, who is 
presently in Edmonton's 
Misericordia Hospital, and 
this club were pleased to 
know that another fellow 
member, Mr. Pete McLeod is 
home from hospital and 
much improved in his health. 


Accident kills Cahahoo man 


A Calahoo man was killed 
in a single vehicle motor 
accident near that commun- 
ity this week. 

A news release from the 
Stony Plain detachment of 


the RCMP said: Alan Rich- 
ard Majeau, 28, of Calahoo 
was killed in a single vehicle 
accident on Secondary Road 
635 near Calahoo at 10:30 


p.m. May 26. 

Two passengers in the 
vehicle were removed to 
hospital for treatment of 
injuries. 


Horse Hill News 


By Esther Wallbank 
The May Community Lea- 
gue meeting was held on 
Tuesday with only eight 
members present out of 
approximately 160 family 
memberships. It was a boys 
baseball evening and a very 
busy time of year and hope- 
fully this explains the poor 
attendance. 


We look forward to a 
family evening on Thursday, 
June 29 along the same lines 
as last year, featuring ball 
games and a weiner roast. 
Bring your own weiners and 
buns. Soft drinks and coffee 
will be provided. If the 
weather doesn't co-operate 
we will move indoors. Mark 
this date on your calendar. 


The ukelele groups from 
Horse Hill led by Mrs, Beth 
Howson and accompanied by 
Mrs. Budd on bass, par- 
ticipated in the Second Ann- 
ual Ukelele afternoon at 
Steele Heights School on 
Wednesday afternoon. Each 
group played their selections 


and some time was spent in 
‘jam _ sessions.’’ Schools 
participating along with 
Horse Hill were Park Allen 
and Steele Heights in Ed- 
monton, and Colchester and 
Mills Haven in the county of 
Strathcona. Even though it 
was a very cold day, the 
weiner roast which followed 


at the Kozak farm was 
thoroughly enjoyed. Meagan 
Buchanan's birthday was on 
that day, and everyone there 
enjoyed a piece of her 
birthday cake. Special thanks 
are extended to Mrs. How- 
son for the time she spends 
and enthusiasm she gener- 
ates in the children,

Gibbons News 


By Karen Hogg 


It was a very busy week for 
church yandals this week in 
the Town of Gibbons. Win- 
dows were broken at the 
Gibbons Sunday School and 
the Anglican Church found 
cigarette butts on the floors 
plus other neat little deeds 
done in the building. I think 
itis a real shame that houses 
of worship have to be treated 
with such a lack of respect. 
These buildings are finan- 
cially maintained by the 
Anglican Church Women 
and the Gibbons Sunday 
School Circle who are all 
volunteers. The funds are 
raised by money making 
projects to keep the running 
and maintenance of these 
building so that adults and 
children have a chance to 
pray, learn and grow to- 
gether. I hope that if anyone, 
children or adults who notice 
anything suspicious or see an 
act of vandalism in progress 
telephone either the RCMP, 
a member of the church or a 
town councillor so that he or 
she can act accordingly. 
When a town is growing at 
the pace such as this, it is a 
sad sight to see an old 
building or a new public 
facility being defaced. 


The Parent Committee for 
the First Gibbons Cubs 
would like to announce the 
winners of their recent raffle. 
First prize, a 10 speed bike 
was won by D. A. Pattison; 
second prize was a skate 
board won by Alice Kort- 
lunsky of Edmonton. The 
Parent Committee would like 
to thank everyone for supp- 
orting their club. A special 
thank you is extended to Mr. 
Pattison for donating the 10 
speed back to the cubs. 


Students in the Gibbons 
Junior High Drama Class will 
present their production of 
Oliver on Thursday, June 1. 
The performance will com- 
mence at 7:30 p.m, in the 
west gymnasium of the 
school, Parents and friends 
are also reminded of the 
performance by the grades 
1-6 choral music groups, 
featuring the primary chorus 
and the elementary Glee 
Club, on Thursday, June 8. 
The performance will begin 
at 7:30 p.m. in the west 
gymnasium of the school. 


Sincere sympathy from the 
community is extended the 
Mrs. Stella Lamoureux and 


family on the passing of 
Rudolph, who passed away 
last week. 


The Brownies and Girl 
Guides will not be holding 
another paper drive til 
sometime in the fall. How- 
ever, we will be taking 
another load of papers into 
the city within the next few 
weeks. A paper bin is located 
behind the old Village office 
and is open all the time. We 
would appreciate receiving 
any papers you may have. 

We would also like to 
thank all the people who had 
all their papers bundled 
when the girls called at your 
door. This made our job 
much easier.

Cabinet tour takes raps 
from Gibbons, Bon Accord 


May 29 was a big day for 
Gibbons and Bon Accord 
when local mayors and resi- 
dents got together with a 
provincial cabinet tour on the 
dot at 7:30 in the morning. 

Beefs and bouquets were 
obvious pleasure that the 
provincial cabinet were visit- 
ing, but there were com- 
plaints from local dignitaries 
about fast growth compoun- 
ded by the problems of 
individual communities. 

The tour met in the new 
Gibbons Seniors Lodge when 
Ernie Jamison MLA emceed 
the meeting after everyone 
had enjoyed a bacon and egg 
breakfast in the drop-in 
centre. 

The provincial government 
delegation consisted of Hon. 
Neil Crawford, Hon. Julian 
Koziak, Hon. Gordon Min- 
iely, Hon, Alan Warrack and 
MLA Jamison. 

In the Bon Accord section 
of the proceedings a pre- 
sentation was given by 
mayor of that community 
Ken Fearnley. Mayor Reg 
Austin of Gibbons, Deputy 
Mayor Don Purdy and Coun- 
cillor Jock Archer gave 
presentations to the cabinet 
ministers on problems facing 
Gibbons. 

Also as part of the day's 
events Norton Loblick, presi- 
dent of Loblick Industries 
spoke to the Government 
delegation of the problems of 
secondary industry in Al- 
berta. 

Mayor Austin, responded 
to later by Hon, Warrack, 
brought the cabinet's atten- 
tion to the problems which 
Gibbons was facing. 

He asked for government 
assistance in a paving pro- 
gram, as the Gibbons central 
core has no paved streets. 

“This situation is causing 
us some concern with dust 
and other problems associa- 
ted with gravelled streets."’ 

Mayor Austin pointed out 
that very little money was 
available to spend on a 
paving program, though the 
town through a levy on 
assessment and frontage tax 
had carried out a program of 
road upgrading with minor 
street work ‘‘making us now 
ready for hard surfacing.”’ 

Mayor Austin said; ‘‘We 
would like conSideration for 
assistance under a growth 
area assistance program. It is 
our intention to apply for 
assistance from the fund 
announced in the budget 
speech for road improvement 
this year, the amount of four 
million dollars for projects 
for all of Alberta does not 
appear to be adequate." 


Mayor Austin also pointed 
out that part of the reason for 
the town's growth was the 
fact it had Edmonton water 
and the mayor thanked the 
government for making this 
benefit available through a 
debenture shielding prog- 
ram. 

Deputy Mayor Don Purdy, 
responded to by Hon. Julian 
Koziak, said that education 
was an important facet of life 
and in the case of Gibbons, 
more than SO percent of the 
tax dollar was being spent on 
education, 

He felt that because Al- 
berta was considered to be a 
rich province due to the 
receipt of oil royalties, it 
seemed that more money 
could be made available for 
education programming. 

He said with the ever 
increasing amount being 
spent on education, there 
was very little money left to 
provide the necessary re- 
quirements and demands of 
the ratepayers of the com- 
munity for other improve- 
ments. 

He said: ‘‘With less than 
50 percent of the tax dollar 
left to work with it is almost 
impossible to provide and fill 
those demands."’ 

Councillor Jock Archer, 
responded to by MLA Jami- 
son said he believed that the 
government should re-look at 
a recreation funding program 
and increase the amounts of 
recreational grants. 

Referring to the esta- 
blishment of the multi-cul- 
tural and recreation pro- 
gram, he said it had helped 
communities like Gibbons to 
incorporate some of the 
required facilities. 

**However, the $10 per 

capita over the 10 year period 
has proved to be an in- 
sufficient amount of fund- 
ing,’ he stated. 
‘At the time of the 
announcement of the pro- 
gram there appeared to be 
more than sufficient funding, 
however with the high infla- 
tion factors, this funding 
appears very minimal,’’ he 
added. 

Councillor Archer explain- 
ed how over a period of three 
years Gibbons had used up 
their total amount of funding 
allotted for a 10 year period. 

He told how Gibbons had 
been placed in a position 
where recreation has pro- 
bably become a priority and 
the town had seen fit to 
financially match the grant 
dollars as shown. 

Arena-debt retirement 
(1976) $141,000, Joint use- 
construction (1976) $23,000, 


Senior Citizens drop-in cen- 
tre (1977) $40,000 and curl- 
ing rink to be constructed 
this year $129,000. 

Councillor Archer also 
pointed out in the 10 year 
Sturgeon Regional Recrea- 
tion Master Plan, total pro- 
jects for the town of Gibbons 
was a cost figure of $667,000. 
He said to date the grant 
approvals were in the am- 
ount of $333,000 and match- 
ed by the town. 

In accordance with the 
plan the town was to receive 
$333,500 by the end of 1982. 

Earlier, in a _ further 
statement, Mayor Austin had 
also expressed his displea- 
sure at the 10 percent tax 
being taken off gas. He said 
the $95 million saving would 
be better off to go to the 
municipalities to upgrade 
water and sewer facilities. 

Mayor Ken Fearnley spoke 
and commented that Bon 
Accord was concerned about 
fast growth and that he and 
his council were trying to 
control growth though their 
development control bylaw. 

Mayor Fearnley told the 


delegation that Bon Accord 
presently had no problems 
but would be requiring 
financial assistance in the not 
too distant future on their 
water and sewer 

MLA Jamison was told by 
Mayor Fearnley that at a 
recent meeting in Bon 
Accord a discussion was held 
on the possibility of having 
the provincial government 
build 8 - 10 self-contained 
senior citizen units, Further 
meetings are expected to be 
held on the subject shortly, 

Mayor Fearnley expressed 
personal concern to the 
group stating that he thought 
we would all be better off 
with less government and 
better government. 

FOOTNOTE: First resi- 
dent of the seniors lodge in 
Gibbons 73 year old Jean 
Fowler was introduced by 
Ernie Jamison and Mrs. 
Fowler told the government 
delegation how well the 
seniors were enjoying their 
new lodge and were pleased 
to have the group at break- 
fast. 


Letter to the Editor 


Burning garbage a bad move 


It makes me wonder what 
makes Gibbons residents, 
who receive ‘‘the best"’ of 
garbage pickup, decide in- 
stead to burn their garbage 

What possible excuse is 
there to be-foul our homes 
and lungs with smoke, caus- 
ing general discomfort to 
people who open their win- 
dows for fresh air - not for 
the stench of your selfish 
habits. Why? 

If you dig your garden 
refuse into a compost who 
needs fertilizer - or a fire for 
refuse? Corn stalks or thick 
fibrous things may be bund- 
led, tied and picked up.

Several of them have health

serious allergies which could

does not trouble me.

days! Our senior citizens are 
going to have their rights to a 
walk in the clean fresh air. Or 
somebody is going to either 
get a ‘‘burning barrel’’ full 
or rocks and gravel - or he 
had better stand there and 
inhale deeply and see how 
“‘nice’’ the stench is. 

Bundle your papers, fill 
your garbage bags or boxes. 
But, for the love of health 
quit that stupid unnecessary 
burning.

OE IUHELW | Premier well received in Redwater 


Premier Lougheed was welcomed by some 200 people in the Redwater Multi-plex 
on the occasion of the North-east Cabinet Tour. The meeting was brief and to the 
point, lasting only one hour. 


Redwater Social Notes 


By Marguerite Neufeld 

Two hundred people att- 
ended the Policeman's Ball 
in Redwater at the Deric Hall 
Friday night, May 27. Many 
came from the Thorhild, 
Radway and Redwater area, 
but other visitors were in 
attendance from more dis- 
tant places, one couple from 
as far away as Australia. 

Former members of the 
Redwater detachment who 
attended included S. Sgt. 
and Mrs. Mary Bader who 
are in Calgary now; Cpl. and 
Mrs. Damon Kondro, from 
Fort Saskatchewan; ex-Sgt. 
and Mrs. Bill Manderville, 
Redwater; Cst. and Mrs. Art 
Pike, Edmonton; Cst. and 
Mrs. Ivan Borkavic, Fort 
Sask., Cst. and Mrs. Al 
Hurkett, Okotoks; Cst. Kathy 
Brown, St. Albert; Cst. Jim 
Stoddart, Swan Hills as well 
as Inspector J. Sebastian, 
officer commanding St. Al- 
bert subdivision. It was a 
successful and enjoyable 
evening. 

Monies realized aiter ex- 
penses will be donated to the 
kindergarten and pre-sch- 
oolers at the Library. 

There are nine members 
stationed at the Redwater

people with about a dozen 
mothers, enjoyed hot dogs 
and watermelon. Though the 
rain held off, a cold north- 
west wind caused the shiver- 
ing adults to cluster around 
the campfire, but the kids 
weren't cold. They were too 
busy picking wild flowers 
and being in, over, under 
and everywhere all at once. 
Except for one or two very 
minor mishaps, the kids 
thoroughly enjoyed them- 
selves and another year of 
catechism came triumphant- 
ly to an end.

Redwater

By Marguerite Neufeld 

One good thing about all 
this rain, besides all the good 
it does the farmers, is the

ways it creates. The Red-

have already been making 
the rounds, 

The executive for this year 
are: President - Art Aitken, 
Vice - Hartley Hamilton, 
Secretary - Myron Buryn and 
Treasurer Mrs. Nettie 
Wosnack. Rudy Roloff was 
re-elected as Greens Com- 
mittee Chairman. Chairman 
of the Men's Tournament 
Committee is Al Davey and 
for the ladies Myrt Roloff 
was re-elected, Heading the 
House Maintenance and 
Repair Committee again this 
year is Walter Ingram and 
John Hawrelko was re-elec- 
ted to chair the House 
Committee,

a charge of $3 on weekdays 
and $4 on weekends and

ractive assets -- the swimm- 
ing pool, the Multi-plex, the 
golf course and the hospital. 
Mr. Topolnisky then intro- 
duced the special guest, 
Premier Peter Lougheed. 

Mr. Lougheed thanked the 
people who had made his 
visit so enjoyable and re- 
marked that it was *‘a good 
opportunity to get out from 
under the dome."’ He prais- 
ed the progressive commu- 
nity of Redwater and com- 
mented that he thought it 
was a good place to start off 
his Cabinet tour. 

The Premier went on to 
say that it was his govern- 
ment's policy to maintain a 
balanced growth in towns 
outside the big cities. He 
stated that communities like 
Redwater must have the 
opportunities to grow and 
develop, hopefully creating 
incentive for the younger 
generation to stick closer to 
their hometown when they 
leave school. 

The Premier continued, 
saying that it is important to 
Alberta for petro chemical 
industries to flourish here. 
As examples, Mr. Lougheed 
referred to the gas plant and 
fertilizer plant just outside 
Redwater. He stated that 
much of the raw product goes 
to Petro-Sar for refining in 
central Canada, resulting in 
removal of jobs from this 
area to the east. He said that 
the Alberta government is 
attempting to resist these 
labour transfers and keep 
these jobs in Alberta, par- 
ticularly in areas similar to 
Redwater. 

His second major concern 
was that the agricultural and 
petrochemical industries 
must both be strong, yet at 
the same time they should 
both bear equal emphasis. In 
some areas more importance 
is attributed to agriculture, 
while other areas stress the 
value of the petrochemical 
industry, but there must be 
concern for both, so that both 
can be strong. 

He went on to say that 
Redwater should concern 
itself with the maintenance 
of the family unit, the crea- 
tion of opportunities for 
youth, care of the aged, and 
the preservation of values 
and resources, He noted that 
Redwater has the potential to 
fulfill these needs. 

In closing, Premier 
Lougheed told residents that 
it is his duty and the 
responsibility of the MLA to 
serve the Redwater area, and 
that he had enjoyed the 
opportunity to meet its 
people. He thanked everyone 
for starting off his tour in 
such a gratifying manner. 

Mayor Konasewich then 
thanked the Premier for his 
words and called on citizens 
with petitions and briefs to 
come forward. 

First in line was Mr. 
Melenka, representing the 
president of the Redwater 
and District Pioneer Club, 
which has members ranging 
in age from 65 to 93. Mr. 
Melenka briefly thanked the 
government for the $1000 
grants given to old age 
pensioners for use in home 
repairs and renovations. 

Mrs. Jegard, vice-presi- 
dent of the General Hospital 
Board made a succinct 
presentation concerning the 
hospital. Mrs. Jegard stated 
that the hospital is presently 
running at an 88 to 105% 
occupancy level and a further 


16 beds are needed. Pre- 
sently, there is a total of 34 
beds in the hospital, with 26 
active. Included in the total 
are six cribs and six pediatric 
beds. She also pointed out 
that there is also need of a 
physiotherapy room, space 
for fluoroscopy and a fire- 
proof room for storage of 
medical records, She men- 
tioned that local service clubs 
have offered support for the 
physiotherapy room. Mrs. 
Jegard also noted that the 
board has taken a negative 
attitude toward Bill 41 as 
submitted to the legislature. 
In closing, she thanked Mr. 
and Mrs. Topolnisky for the 
aid they have given the 
hospital and the town. 

Mr. Walter Wolanski was 
next in line and brought 
forward two concerns, Both 
dealt with the transfer of 
land which occurred when 
the MD of Sturgeon took over 
some land previously under 
the jurisdiction of the County 
of Thorhild. 

Mr. Wolanski stated that 
assets and liabilities involved 
with this land transfer should 
be settled as to what is fair 
according to the area invol- 
ved. He also pointed out that 
since the exchange of land a 
hospital ward had been split 
between the MD of Sturgeon 
and the County of Thorhild 
with no representation as yet 
from the MD. He was 
concerned over the lack of 
representation. 

Ag. Society President Alex 
Bochanesky thanked the 
government for the annexa- 
tion of lands from the County 
of Thorhild to the MD of 
Sturgeon, saying the change 
brings many benefits to the 
farmers of the area. 

Mr. Ted Benedict spoke 
next, representing the par- 
ents of school children who 
were said to be adversely 
affected by the transfer to 
the MD of Sturgeon. He told 
the Premier that some 30 


students were being trans 

ported privately to the 
schools at Redwater as there 
are no more school bus 
services extended to the 
people in the transferred 
area. The students must be 
bused to Radway or Thor 

hild, but the students and 
their parents want to remain 
in the Redwater schools. He 
remarked that many peti- 
tions had gone out to the 
MLA, the MD and the 
County, all to no avail and 
the problem still exists. He 
said that the parents would 
like to see an imaginary line 
drawn (to encompass all 
children in that area imme- 
diately, giving them busing 
pr vileges to Redwater sch- 
ook: . 

Mayor Konasewich think 
ed the petitioners and in 
closing presented two con- 
cerns of the Town of Red- 
water. The mayor emphasiz- 
ed the need for nursing hcme 
facilities in Redwater and 
expressed the community's 
desire to establish a pro- 
vincial-civic centre to house 
both provincial and civic 
departments. 

With time running out, 
Mayor Konasewich thanked 
the Premier and MLA 
Topolnisky for coming to 
Redwater. After thanking 
those participating, Premier 
Lougheed presented the ma- 
yor with a plaque as a 
momento of the visit. The 
Premier, in turn, was pre- 
sented with a decorated egg 
by an unidentified lady. 

The Premier then made his 
way out of the Multi-plex, 
surprised and pleased at the 
sight of the school children 
waiting outside in the cold 
wind and rain. MLA Topol- 
nisky and Premier Lougheed 
shook hands and chatted 
with some of the students as 
they made their way to the 
helicopter. Then the party 
was off to visit other Alberta 
centres.

Hairdresser Ziad Jaber is hoping 
his new restaurant will be a cut 
above the rest. 

After all, the Big M, offers more 
than your average hamburger. 

Specialties on the menu include 
mouth-watering shish-kabob and 
shawarmma, (a tastebud tingling 
roast beef sandwich seasoned 
with 12 different spices, a special 
sauce and barbecued tomato). 

But Ziad and his partners in the 
new restaurant, brother Wajih and 
father-in-law Jamil Jawhari haven't 
forgotten good old traditional Can- 
adian food. Regular hamburgers 
made only with fresh Alberta beef 
and pancakes are sure to be 
crowd oullers 

English style breakfasts of bacon 
and eggs are available from 8 a.m. 
to 11 am. 
This mixture of Canadian, English 


and Middle Eastern food adds an 
exciting international flavour to the 
new restaurant. “This is our first 
restaurant in St. Albert but we 
hope it won't be the last,” said 27 
year old Ziad who came. to 
Canada 11 years ago. 

“St. Albert is growing and we 
hope to grow with it,” he added. 

Ziad is well. known around 
Edmonton. He runs the hairdressing 
salon at the Hotel Macdonald and 
lists Premier Lougheed among his 
customers. His proficiency with 
comb and scissors already has 
won him a number of top awards 
both in Alberta and the U.S. “I’m 
not going to give up the Salon but, 
| intend to maintain a keen interest 
in the restaurant.” 

It will be open 8 a.m. through 
midnight, daily, with a staff of 16 
to keep hungry customers satisfied.
